Assumption
We live in a world full of assumption. If we see a scar on someones wrist, we assume that they cut themselves. If someone is crying a lot, we assume they are depressed. If someone is always smiling we assume they never hurt, and they are always happy. If we see a pregnant teenager, most people just assume shes sleeps around. We all do it in some way or another, everyone is guilty. We don't realize that people make mistakes, and they all could hide their secrets as well as we hide ours. We don't realize what we are assuming, and honestly we probably will never find out if what we are assuming is the truth. So, are we just making these assumptions up to make our conversations just a little bit more interesting?
