Judging people
Today’s blog follows on from my quote yesterday by ‘Sting’ about ‘judging people.’
As a small child, I was continually being judged through my inabilities, rather than my abilities, for a lack of depth in my course work, and being bottom of the class. I never got past that.
At the end of the school year when report cards came out, walking through the school gates, they had already been opened, and discussed, with class grades compared, long before the reports got home.
You learn very quickly that when it happens to you, it’s wrong to do it to someone else. Luckily, I never doubted or thought myself stupid in school, but I knew deep down something was fundamentally wrong.
It never made sense why I was struggling to learn. Judging is wrong because the only person who knows the truth about your life and what you have to deal with, is you. Even if you don’t know the truth, you will stop at nothing to understand your life, what you deal with and to potentially prove your critics wrong.
The hardest part of being judged is that others don’t really know how it feels, but will form their opinions and judge anyway. Even if you’re not initially aware of what you later come to know, always believe in your intentions, and make sure they’re honourable.
Where people may have opinions about you, never doubt your intentions, if what you’re doing is honourable and it’s for the greater good. You can’t know and how things seem, aren’t how things really are. Simply put, it’s wrong to judge.
