Topic: Judgment | |
---|---|
Well, it's like when you see someone and they always "act" happy, so one would normally conclude that this person is happy go lucky all the time. But what if that person is just hiding pain and you just can't see it because they don't allow to show? You think that person has it all together, when in reality they probably might need a helping hand, or just someone to talk to. It's really hard to say. I wait and see who the person really is. I don't want to assume they are this way, or that way. Yeah, normally I can tell if someone is just a natural prick or biatch, but I still try to see if maybe there is more to that person. I dunno. I think one problem in this world is that we all tend to judge each other rather quickly. We make assumptions about who someone is without really knowing them. He is a Republican? Oh, he must love Sean Hannity so therefore I hate him. She believs in abortion? Baby killer. She should rot in hell. He doesn't believe in God? What a dumbazz! These are just examples of how society does judge things. Pretty sad if ya ask me. Damn Dude. Thats like all philosophical and chit...... He's scaring me!!!! |

i dont believe for one split second that there is even one person in this world that has NEVER EVER judged another human being.
I call B/S and not sad that we do. we have to do it its part of our genetic make up and you can talk till you are blue in the face...everyone judges other people. and it didn't even take alcohol for me to admit that. now weather or not we allow ourselves to get passed that initial judgment is a contentious choice that we make. power of choice is a wonderful thing. |

Know what I mean? |

I agree!! But, first impressions tends to stick with you until a person shows you otherwise. |

Know what I mean? I know what you mean, but... I was taught differently. I focus in, roll it around, concentrate on it, decide if I need it, it's important, etc, and then cut it loose when done with it. |

All we see of someone at any moment is a snapshot of their life at that particular moment. It does not show us the millions of other moments... times of poverty, riches, joy, despair, ups and downs, moments of glory, elation, loss, pain, happiness, kindness, or the millions of decisions and choices that have led up to that one moment we happen to see. Do we judge based on that particular moment we are seeing? Should we judge at all based on one moment? Are you able to put yourself in another's shoes..so to speak. Or simply go by what your seeing at that moment? I always TRY to put myself in others shoes. I judge moments, as just that,, moments and try not to assume I know any person by any one moment in their life. |

Know what I mean? sorry can't agree there that to me it's apples and oranges sorry No sorry necessary. It's not about making a judgment..it's about letting the judgment roll off your mind. Yes, we all make a split second judgments, were wired that way. But we can choose to let it go or focus on it. We can keep looking and keep our thought on the initial judgment..or we can see it, think and let it go. I'm referring to a first impression judgment call. Oh look at how fat she is..then we let it go or keep looking at her and finding all the fat places. Thinking about what she could do to lose some weight, assuming she is lazy, assuming she has bad eating habits. Or we look, think my god she needs to lose weight...then let the thought go. I'm just using that as an example. Kendra..you said you were taught differently... to focus in, roll it around, concentrate, decide if it's important to you...I get that. But when it comes to a first impression about another...why? Why do you need to focus in, roll it around, concentrate... I guess that's the part I don't get. Why so much thought would go into a judgment on a person via their firstimpression.. particularly a stranger. |
