Don't Judge

When a person is genuinely bad all of us tend to judge but when we think about it later and if we are mature enough, we'll realize that we just wasted our time.

Does judging someone alter our life in a positive way?

No, it just makes us angry, irritated or jealous. It distracts our focus and takes away our peace of mind. If we put that energy on our own work, we would do our job better. Always remember when you judge someone you don't define them you define yourself. Everyone has a story, and everyone has a reason why they are the way they are. There are so many people who are being accused just for being themselves. When you are not able to agree with someone, it's okay. You don't have to. Just don't be disrespectful to others and behave as if your way of thinking is the best way or thing.

Before judging someone, we need to make sure that we are perfect and no one in this world is perfect which simply implies that on one can judge a person.

Our job is not to judge. Our job is to lift the fallen. Our job is to heal the hurting. That girl you called fat; she's starving. The guy you laughed at when he was crying, his mother is dying. That guy you pushed away, is being abused at home. The old man you made fun of because his face was deformed, he fought for your country.

We think that we know what everyone is going through, but the fact is we have no idea. Blowing out someone's candle doesn't make yours burn any brighter. Remember, when you try to pull people down, you are already below them.

We all must understand that our words and actions have an impact on others. There are so many people dealing with so much today that even the smallest of our action can be a huge trigger in their personal life. All those who judge will never understand and those who understand will never judge. Don't judge other's choices without knowing their reasons. We shouldn't be speaking negative about people because we don't know the kind of battle they are fighting daily.

No one likes being judged so back off and let people live. We're all on the same type of journey of evolving and growing.

Do you know how to stop judging? Before you judge, stop and think about all that God has forgiven you for. Lastly to conclude I would say, everyone you meet in this world loves something, is afraid of something and has lost something.

So, don't judge, because you know their name and not their story; You know, what they did but not what they've been through.
