So quickly we judge.
So little we know.

Maybe she had a baby at home
that had no food to eat
or clothes to wear
or honor to uphold.

Maybe she was all that baby had
and this was the only thing
that kept her alive.

Maybe she needed this
to ensure that baby would have
a mommy to hold her
and tell her she is loved
at the end of that day.

Would you betray someone strong
to save someone weak?

Who knows.
Maybe she is smarter than all of us.
Kinder, braver indeed.

Maybe we see the wrong hero.

So quickly we judge.
So quickly we ****.
