Wisdom and experience has taught me to match a person's words with their fruit. Fruit in this scenario is synonymous with actions. Many people perfect the art of selling a good game, schmoozing, playing the ultra nice role, or projecting themselves as innocent (aka playing dumb).
My mother shared a good bit of advice two years ago... "Despite what a person TELLS you, give them time and their actions will either confirm or contradict".
Though some perceive this as cynical, it isn't. Simply put, have an open heart and mind; however maintain discernment and never eat BS just because someone serves it on a silver platter.
