simply like candy.

People are like candy.
On the outside, we have one appearance, but on the inside, we're completely different.

Sometimes, that surprise inside is enjoyable.

Others, it's a bit shocking.

Why do we always jump to conclusions based on the outside?

The girl with the biggest smile could be filled with the most pain.

The girl who comes off as a goody-two-shoes could actually be a bit of a rebel.

The boy who is always shy and quiet might actually be pretty loud and funny.

The kid who seems like they're only going to kick your butt may actually be super nice.

That guy who's always goofing off... he could be abused.

That girl that always seems to be full of energy... she could be anorexic.

You never know until you look inside.

We need to stop judging people based on who they appear to be rather than who they truly are.
No, we may not have wrappers that describe who we are like candy does, but that doesn't mean it's okay to be so judgmental.

Sometimes, when we bite into a piece of candy and we don't like what we discover is hidden inside, we spit it out.

We do that to people too.

Once we discover who they really are, if we don't think they're the coolest person ever, we kind of just spit them out.

We shouldn't be that way.

We may not have the same personality as them, but they are their own person. We need to learn to respect that.

Remember that the next time you judge someone.

Don't treat them like a piece of candy.
