Usually, when I start my computer for the day, I would usually surf the net in search for the latest updates around the world, be it Naruto episodes, or even my mundane day-to-day school email.
Then this article caught my eye on the MSN website when I was just preparing to off my lappy:

I would usually not read about these articles, but paradoxically, after reading this 2 sentences, it had impacted me.
| "When somebody has a disfigurement and don't look as pretty as you do, don't judge them, because you never know what happened to them," she said. "Don't judge people who don't look the same as you do. Because you never know. One day it might be all taken away." |
Can't deny that most of us are "look-lookers". We more than often focus solely on looks or appearance to judge a person's character, demeanor etc.
I guess that's just the way of humans, taking on an ever superficial judgmental mindset towards others.
