When they lash out in anger irrationally.
Believe them.
When they look like they are being lazy, but say they are confused.
Believe them.
When they want a band aid, but you don’t see a cut.
Believe them.
When their tears seem to fall from nowhere.
Believe them.
If they act like they don’t care.
Know they do.
When they laugh when they should cry.
Teach them.
Sometimes the look on their face.
The words from their mouths.
Their body language.
Is in exact opposition to how they are feeling.
Know that there is always more to their story.
More potential.
More heart.
Push past appearances.
See beyond the surface.
Believe in them. All of them.
