@Widdekuu917 жыл бұрын
(Beware, long personal story about one classmate that I met after 10-12 years) I've met lots of old classmates, but somehow it was always them that looked like their life had fallen apart. And I always greeted them nicely. Twice the person ran off, too embarrassed to look at me. Multiple times they started an awkward conversation, in which it was soon clear that they were either addicted to drugs, alcohol, or otherwise in a bad place in life. And too often, they instantly throw insults at me, hoping to cover up their fear and pain, which is wáy too clear to cover up. One time though, which really stuck with me, I met someone +/-10 years later, that had been out of controll in high school. It was a special school for kids with special needs, it's just that mine was innocent ADHD and he had severe anger issues. Back then, he'd given me black-eyes and slammed my head into the wall. He was known for being the stereotypical Arab guy, with the leather jacket that pickpocketed people and nastily catcalled women. Always dealing with the cops, agressive to teachers, and so on. About 10 or more years later, he walked into the same traincompartment and stared at me. I was frightened, looked the other way and he greeted me. Before I could even say anything, he started apologizing for the time in highschool. He said he remembered everything he'd done, even mentioned the punching and said; 'Oh I can't tell you how sorry I am for that, I was a total idiot back then. I'm not asking you to forgive me, that's totally up to you if I deserve that. Just know that I've changed since then, I'm not hurting people anymore, I've made my life better.' I accepted his apology and we talked as friends after that. He told me that he had started working in the police-department, as an assistant, but wanting to become the head of the department. I laughed and said (jokingly); Oh, you visited them só often in your younger years, you just figured you might as well work there, since you know the department so well?' He laughed out loud and we seperated ways, since I had to get out a few stops earlier. But that was the only person that has sincerely apologized. And had turned his life around. And he's doing great now.

What a heartwarming story. I had a similar experience as a police officer. I had arrested a young man and he was subsequently sentenced to a year in the county jail. During the arrest procedure I had the opportunity to talk with him and encourage him to use the experience as a step towards seeking a better life. He seemed to be a person with a good heart. Three years later I was clearing a traffic stop and a car beeped and pulled over. It was this young man, trying to thank me through his tears. He had indeed turned his life around and was married with a small child, succeeding as a father and husband. We never know what effect we might have by showing kindness. It's true that many might have no effect at all, but that one success is worth many failures. Thank you Jesus, all glory and honor to you.

I know Im kind of late to the conversation, but everyone is talking about their "awkward" hug. The most probable reason why she didn't fully hug him is because it's not appropriate for a judge to hug the people they sentenced. She knew this video was going to be viewed by a lot of people, so she understood that she still had to be professional. Even if that reason is completely wrong and she's just not a hugger, it's still sweet of her to be there with them when he got out of jail. But can everyone please stop saying she's racist? They were friends in Middle School and she's there celebrating with him. I'm am 99% sure she isnt racist. All in all, this was sweet even if they didn't fully hug
