Unexpected kindness

Very recently I was going through a really difficult time. It was emotionally draining and upset me extensively.

I found kindness, concern and genuine sincerity sometimes comes from the most unexpected source.

My friends were supportive, which was no surprise. I couldn't turn to my family in this case, but I know that they would support me through pretty much anything.

The source from which I received compassion was a big surprise to me and I will never ever see that person in the same way. I used to think that this person was a pompous ass, but have found that I was wrong about that. I didn't actually make a snap judgement about this person (which would be the natural assumption), but have judged them by actions (Ed: I shouldn't be judging at all, should I?). It's all a front though, for someone who has a loud bark, but a tiny heart. I need to stop judging - that would be the primary lesson. The secondary? Sometimes you can't always judge a book by it's contents either, you need to read between the lines.

Other than that I have joined the church choir. I enjoy it immensely. Choir practices only start next week, so I haven't had to start sacrificing my Thursday evenings yet. That will be the real test.
