Tinted Glass Window

Hm, fancy a cuppa tea?

Huummmm...

When we look at someone, we see the way the person carries him or herself
How he or she walks, talks and goes about doing things
There is a certain amount of conclusions that we can come up with from those observations
But many times, there's a lot more going on beyond the surface...

Every person went through life experiencing a unique set of incidents
Bitter or sweet, it is those experiences that made them who they are and what we see is the product of years of molding and shaping

As our world is not made up of rainbows and daisies, somewhere along the line, people go through bad patches and begin picking up baggages
The thing about baggages is that as we continue to move forward, it tends to weigh us down and sooner or later, we (hopefully) learn to leave them behind
But there are also some which no matter how hard we try, they tend to stick around
At the thought of them, we cringe, get frustrated, disappointed, regret and be depressed...

Looking at others, as we get to know them better, we come to have a clearer view of their baggages as well
Love them or hate them, it is a part of who the person is
And as we come face to face with them, we can't help but ask ourselves,
"Can I accept them?"
"Will it harm me?"
"When is he or she going to leave them behind and move forward?"

and most of all,

"Is this all worth it?"
