A lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands.

Her mum came in and softly asked her little daughter with a smile:"my sweetie, could you give your mum one of your two apples? "

The girl looked up at her mum for some seconds, then she suddenly took a quick bite on one apple, and then quickly on the other.

The mum felt the smile on her face freeze. She tried hard not to reveal her disappointment.

Then the little girl handed one of her bitten apples to her mum,and said:"mummy, here you are. This is the sweeter one. "

No matter who you are, how experienced you are, and how knowledgeable you

think you are, always delay judgement.

without understanding them first.

What you see may not be the reality. Never conclude for others.

你第一眼看見的，未必就是事實的真相。別幫他人下結論。

不要有意無意的評判他人，甚至是我們的朋友、親人、父母、愛人、子女。在不了解真相之前，你所看到表面可能只是假象。
