It’s often difficult for us to understand why people do the things they do,
Think the way they do, or even act the way they do.
And, it’s in that difficulty,
That makes it easier or okay to pass judgement.
Yet, the thing is, we have not spent one day in their shoes.
We don’t know their trials. Their difficulties. Their tears.
But, the thing is,
We are not called to judge, or even seek to understand.
We are simply called to love.
In that love, we honor, we value, we grow.
We honor those even though they may be different from we.
We honor ourselves in knowing that in reality,
We are not unlike anyone else.
And, sometimes, that can be difficult to understand. HB

Hello, I'm Herschel. And, I'll be the first to say, that I am not a writer. Although, there was a day, long ago, that I considered writing as a career. Yet, life took me in a totally different direction. Today, I find myself just putting my thoughts down, simply with pen and paper. I'm a little old-fashioned maybe, in that sort of way. I simply find myself writing about whats real, and relevant to me, based off what life has given me. If what I write touches you, then my heart is truly at ease. For what it tells me, lets me know, that we are truly in this thing called "Life" together. And so, I thank each of you for taking the time to stop by, for liking my writings, and giving me the honor, that you would somehow follow me. And, so, I'm not a writer, a poet, or even perhaps a great blogger. All I can simply say, is that I write from a heart that's real, a place that somewhere along the way, I forgot existed.
