It's easy to look at people and make quick judgements about them, their present and their pasts, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. what a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceburg hidden from sight. And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul. Sherrilyn Kenyon
About This Quote

This quote speaks to the idea that life is not all about what you see, but what you don't. The people you meet may seem like they have it all together, but how many of them are hiding their true selves? Sometimes, people are forced to hide their true selves because the world only cares about surface appearances. This quote reminds us that we shouldn't judge people so harshly because we don't know them well enough to say what is hidden behind the facade.
