Do you ever really know
anyone
and what they are going through?

A best friend, a family member?
Do you ever really know?

I remember times
you shook your head
and just said

I guess you never really know.
Never really knew you
and what you were going through...

how much we miss out on
in life.

I think we are so caught up with our own little lives and dreams and priorities that we miss the signals which alert us to other peoples problems.

That is so true... and heartbreaking sometimes, when we learn of something our family or friend has suffered, while we never knew... however, on the flip side, I wouldn`t WANT to know `all` of everyone`s hiddens- I think we`d all go insane if we did  
Best to you~
