Hailey, a blogger and “professional worrier,” found herself frustrated while stuck behind an older SUV with a sign reading, “Learning stick, sorry for any delay.” This simple message shifted her perspective, making her realize she was quick to judge without knowing others’ challenges.
She shared her insight on Facebook, wondering if she’d have shown the same patience without the sign. Hailey reflected that people don’t wear signs about their struggles—whether a divorce, illness, or grief. Her message: we shouldn’t need visible signs to treat others with compassion. Hailey urges everyone to show kindness, regardless of knowing someone’s hardships.
