People are creatures that are given a brain and wit. With this, we have the power to think ahead, to assume things. Assumptions though can lead to hatred, and to insecurity. When something happens, there are always multiple sides to the story, always something different said by different people. Therefore, before jumping to conclusions and assuming something, listen, listen to everything.
Listening is a skill that is difficult to acquire let alone use it with everyone. Listening is the key to moving forward, to understanding, and without it, where would we be? Probably in a dark pit isolated with our own self centered selves.
Assumption is the product of lack of listening, and hence there is only a personal opinion without regards to others. Let the light shine in and give way to the listeners, the ones who care, those who make little assumptions. One of my pet peeves is people who assume. For example, and action that is done with good intentions, people can assume that it is with bad intentions. How are they to know someones intentions? Some people are so ignorant yet they still deny it and admit nonexistent knowledge.
