Everyone is doing their best with what they're given

In the age of speaking your truth on social media, it's easy for people to root against those who hold different beliefs. However, it's important to remember that everyone has different upbringings and perspectives, and they're doing their best based on their own understanding of the world. Instead of vilifying others, it's crucial to recognize that everyone is fulfilling their need for significance and trying to make sense of their reality. By understanding this, we can foster empathy and avoid perpetuating the divide.
