I Don’t Think that Anyone Can Say ‘Others Have It Easier’
I don’t want to hear anyone tell another person, ‘This position was handed to you’ anymore.
Every time someone says this, it has a negative connotation.
I perceive everyone making their own effort in their own way.
Those that are ‘handed’ or ‘given’ opportunities do all they can to keep them.
Everyone’s path in life looks different.
I don’t think that there is anything wrong with strongly believing in someone’s potential so much that one may quickly ‘hand’ a chance to that person. There is nothing wrong with seeing another’s ability in a positive light and hoping that that person you believe in succeeds.
I don’t think that anyone can say ‘others have it easier’.
Those who are seemingly handed opportunities have a lot of issues to deal with. I am certain that these people have cowered in fear a lot and cried a ton. Why is it sometimes assumed that these people ‘don’t know how hard it is to start from zero’? Why can’t we be happy for those who are chosen for opportunities for financially secure futures? How about assuming that everyone lives a hard life in some shape, way or form and believe that when one may be given a chance to shine, that person finally gets a break?
