Day 13: Assume Goodness

Today's challenge is to assume goodness in people. I don't really know how to do that in a blog post, or really out in the world because I spend time around people I know are good. But I guess there have been a few things lately that have irritated me about people, and I could probably stand to make a more concerted effort to say to myself, "okay, X is annoying about this person, but why are they this way?" By asking myself this question, I'm better able to put things in perspective and can move past my feelings of resent and onto patience and understanding. So now that I have gotten those feelings out, hopefully I can do this more often!
