Hello world! This one is for YOU!! No matter what we do or how hard we try to change things there will always be some level of judgement in the world. Especially in this time where it seems like everyone is shaming others for something. That being said most of us do our best to keep that judgement to ourselves, and don’t stare people down. We have the kindness not to make comments when we think someone shouldn’t be using a wheelchair, or parking in a handicapped spot or even just wearing a mask out in public. Sadly, there are those people who can’t seem to keep their thoughts and judgments to them self. This letter is for those who can’t keep their comments to themselves or feel the need to stare others down.
