We’re told from an early age not to judge someone. At least, not ‘til we’ve walked a mile in their shoes. But judging someone is something that we’ve all done It’s part of being human, not something we choose.

Sonnet 68 'It's Fine, I Will But Bow and Then Step Back'

And yet, love dies not easily in me, But longs for what I cannot, may not, have. Though life’s Reality I clearly see, My...
