This will be a simple blog, meant for a single purpose: To show others a different perspective. I was inspired to write this blog after seeing a blog about why grammar is important and why people should correct other people's grammatical mistakes. The content is inspired from a speech I once heard.
______________________________________________________________________________________________

You're walking through walmart, minding your own business. Maybe looking for some cereal or fruit or something. You've had a good day, you're pretty happy, and you want to get home to see your family. But as you turn a corner, some bumbling idiot runs into you, spraining your ankle and knocking you down. You look up at this guy, furious for how stupid someone could be, and you see a man completely ragged. Worn down, tired looking, dirty clothes, tousled hair. He just mumbles "Sorry" and walks away, doesn't even bother to help you up. You get up, check your ankle, and of course say several terrible insults to yourself about the idiocy a man needs to do that.

Now, you're driving. You're being completely legal, and a man t-bones you. He was obviously drunk, and when I say drunk I mean three bottles of whiskey and then some. You escape with a broken bone or two, and that an is fine. Of course you are furious, hating that repugnant man who has no respect for the world or other drivers.

If I was not worried about length, I would keep going for awhile giving you terrible examples of things that could happen to you. But, since people love briefness I will leave it be.

But what do did not know was that that man, who ran into you and sprained your ankle, was actually a respectable, good hearted, kind man. But what made him turn into such a degenerate? Someone who walks around clumsily and hurting others? Heres why. That mans wife, the wife he was married to for 25 years and loved every second of it, died by drowning in their backyard pool while intoxicated. His son, who was six, is now traumatized because mommy wont get up. Not only that, but a friend of his wife is suing him for abusing her and making her commit suicide, and so far that person is winning the case. All of his friends scorn him, all of his family show obvious dislike, and he recently got fired from his job. He hasn't slept in three days, and hasn't showered either.

That drunk driver, the one that t-boned you? Yeah, that day he was getting evicted from his house, the one that he spent all of his money on and the one that he saved forever on. He loved his house, always was working on it. Because of the eviction, he went into his workplace drunk. He instantly got fired and sued, and his girlfriend broke up with him for being a lousy drunk, even though he has been a hardworking man all of his life. A good lover, a great co-worker, and a good man.

But yet you still have the overweening confidence to insult these people who's life is way worse than yours simply because you do not know, and you do not take the time to think about this. And this is why I named this blog Perspective. No one in this world thinks someone elses perspective is better than their own. And this is what I will leave off with: Always been kind. You can never know what someone has been through. The best you can do is leave them alone, they probably deserve it.

Thank you for reading.

Dunno if you remember me... I used to play Medieval Heroes. I was just wondering if you and Elliot had made a new server. Bai.

Hello Pigman!
Of course I remember you. I remember nearly everyone from the old server, and miss them dearly. Elliot, I regret to inform you, has pretty much quit playing MC (Atleast as far as I can tell...). But do not despair, hopefully I will get a server out there around the summer time, when I have much more time on my hands. If I am lucky, I will even get Chetcat (Surely you remember him) to help me.

But yes, as far as Elliot goes, he is done. I assure you I will miss him as much, if not more, than you. He was a great server owner and a good friend.

I will also let you know if I do start a server up. Thanks for commenting!
