Awesome. Thanks for that Cumol.

"Don't see the people by the baggage they have on their backs that they are given." I would add that I always say that you can't determine the truth by what someone says, but by what they do. It is trite, but IRL actions speak louder than words.

I agree. The part about "what they tell you they are" might be a bit misleading.

We had a discussion on Hubski about the question you ask somebody you just met, "what do you do?" and people tend to tell you what they do as a job. For many people, their job is not what they want to do but what they had to do. They paint, make music, help out an NGO etc.
