If you give a moose a muffin

You'd think with the way my life has gone, and the experiences I've had, that I would know better than to judge someone or let my petty feelings get in the way. BUT... unfortunately, I haven't.

This evening I got a ton of "I'm a jerk" pie squished in my face {figuratively}. I found out {through internet stalking...} that someone I had judged a little to harshly is in a situation that definitely warrants less judging and more love/friendship. I'm not saying I didn't have a reason, and it's not like this person came to me begging for friendship, it's just my reason wasn't very good. [But really, as a good Christian, is there any reason to not offer the other {friendship} cheek.] I just wish I could have taken a better approach to this person. I'm really sorry I didn't. I wish I knew how to make up for my short comings in this case.

I think the moral of this story is: Everybody's lives suck, so instead of making it suck more, we should make it suck less and offer friendship and love to those we may not fully want to, chances are, they're the ones who need it the most. I'm definitely going to try harder at this as I {literally} move on with my life.

{PS If parts of this don't make sense...well they're not really meant to.}
