A Penny For Thought

Get It Together

Mood: Thoughtful
Listening to: Nothing

Why do we judge?I've had some time to think today and that question continued to run through my head.We sit around and place judgement on other people,the homeless man that sits on the bench asking for spare change what do most people say? "I don't feel sorry for them they could get a job if they wanted to."But the truth of the matter is we have no idea what that person has gone through,when a person falls down and doesn't have anyone to help them up what are they supposed to do if they don't have it in themselves to just get up?How dare we judge the young woman who is a stripper,are we going to pay her bills,put her through school,or even take care of that child that she might have at home?The misguided young man sitting in a jail cell wondering where he went wrong and how he is going to get his life together.He is looked at as a THUG,NO GOOD,and just down right TRIFFLIN',but he is none of those things he's just missing something and there is no one there to help him figure out what it is.To say that a person is no good, a thug,or whatever else doesn't make us better then the next person it only makes us feel that way.But how dare you put somebody down for they're sins when you are either going to or have commited sins just like the next person.So like the title say:GET IT TOGETHER!!

Or most probably because they don\'t want to think that the people they are judging may have similar problems to them, but just a different way of dealing with it.



    If people judge, they don\'t have to look into how the person is really feeling, and that way they can carry on with their own selfish lives, without having to feel any guilt of not helping the person out.



    Just my penny\'s worth anyway :) I try my hardest not to judge, but obviously everyone does it sub-consciously. You could say I\'ve judge the people who judge others!



    But anyway, I believe that \"if you judge someone, you have no time to love them\".
