We all have heard the famous quote "Don't Judge a Book by its Cover". Pocahontas does a great job showing one of the many examples strangers do not know about others lives. Pocahontas shows John Smith the bear he would have shoot, had a family of bear cubs. What would have happened to those bears cubs if he would have shot the mom, we now don't gave to worry about that possibility.
Everyone needs to realixe that our friends, our best friends, our girlfriends or boyfriends, our husbands or wives, or family-in-laws, and etc were all strangers once. Each of you walked on this Earth, living your life, without knowing one another. Until one day your lives crossed and became much more than a stranger, you became a loved one. Just because the man in the grocery store or the lady driving in the lane beside you is a stranger to you, that does not mean they are not important to this world. So start treating them with respect. Because if you talked to the elderly man in the grocery store, you would have found out that he is alone because his wife battled cancer. And the lady driving beside you was on her way to her son's funeral... If we take the time to understand more about everyone else, we would learn things we never knew.
