DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER
Yes. See you weren't being fair when you judged him by just one occasion. And even there you were wrong!
Well, that's how things looked to me. I really didn't mean to be unfair.
You shouldn't judge people. Maybe, there is another side to a situation that we cannot see or understand. Just keep your thoughts about other people to yourself. I hope you didn't mention that you thought Suketu was a thief to anyone else.
No, you are the only one I told.
Well, I am glad Ram. People shouldn't talk bad about others. People gossip and spread rumors; and then start to think badly of others.
I am really sorry, Nirav. I promise I won't do it again. Suketu must be a nice guy if you like him. Will you take me to meet him?
All right, he is at the candy store right now. Let's go over there, and I will buy you some candy.
That's so nice of you Nirav. Let's race to see who can get to the candy store first.
Don't judge me for what you can't see For things aren't always as they seem. You don't have to be a supermodel to be beautiful, You don't have to have money to be rich, For things aren't always as they seem.
Life goes on and we grow up, Forget our childish ways and listen up; People aren't always as we imagine them to be, And our best friend can be our worst enemy.
We learn that love and lust are not the same thing, And that the easiest way out isn't always the best; But most importantly we learn not to judge a book by it's cover,
And that things aren't always as they seem.
