Cruel or Kind? Is (S)He Telling The Truth?

“But I'll never know which one, how am I going to tell the difference between someone who is cruel and someone who is kind.” Heba: A Small Statistic

Anyone can be cruel or kind. I think that everyone has both kindness and cruelty in our hearts. It doesn't matter if a person looks or acts like a "kind person" or a "cruel person" because everyone can act like they have a personality that is completely opposite from their true personality. Deep within the heart of a kind person, they can be cruel. They can be wishing that the person in front of them would never appear again, but on the outside, they are best friends. The only person who knows your true personality is you. And the only person who knows your best friend's true personality is your best friend, because even though they tell you “You're the only one who knows my real personality.”, it doesn't mean that they aren't lying. You can think that your friend is shy and weak, but maybe, while someone is bullying her, she's thinking “Does this girl even hear herself? I would love to slap her right now.”. We never know who is cruel or kind.
