Everyone has a story.  Some are
serving others; some are taking
away.  Some are treading water and simply
being.  And so, there is room for judgment
if you so choose.  Instead of judging,
observe the other stories.  Digest
them.  See what they have to teach
you.  Do they cause you to want to alter
your story?  Do they propel you to action
or give you satisfaction?  You are in a
symbiotic relationship with all you meet. 
There can be no separation. 
Listen to the stories and learn from them.  Dig under the surface if you feel so
inclined.  You will always learn
something, and that is the point of your story.
