But, none of this is right.
Simon Cowell? King of Judging? |
So, what if people didn't judge others? What would you do? What would you say? Who would you be?
Personally, I think I would be so happy. There would be a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I would definitely dance in the streets, sing at the top of my lungs, be brutally honest all the time.
But, most importantly, I would not keep any secrets.
I think that with judgement of others comes this cage that we all think we need to live in. We are always watching what we do and what others do. We always have to say the right thing. It is like there is a perfect mold that we have to fit into so that we are not judged. The only problem is that even if you fit the perfect mold you will be judged for being so perfect.
There is no winning!
Do you think there is anyway to win this battle of judgement?
We can stop judging, one person at a time. If you will try hard not to judge anyone, and I try real hard not to judge anyone each day, then maybe we have made this world a happier place for us all. Lets just be ourselves.
ReplyDeleteI think the hard part has to do with how harshly we judge each other. I you are really mean, then it will be super hard to break the habit of judging.
DeleteI feel to win over the judgements that other people give about a certain person is for that person to just not care. You aren't here to please people. They judge someone but they also have some insecurities or they judge a certain person because of the bad that they see in themselves. If someone judges another person then it's usually a reflection of what they see in themselves whether they can pin point that thing or not. So I would say, to beat this is to simply not care. Once someone doesn't care about what others say ( in terms of insults. If somebody advises then that is completely different ) then soon the people who judge and throw insults will stop. They do it to get some sort of enjoyment so to beat it you kill that enjoyment and they'll stop.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any pointers on how not to care? Although I do agree with you, I personally struggle immensely with not caring what people say and I know that it is definitely easier said than done.
Deletei feel like in order for people to not be so judgemental, they have to be happy with them selves. People probably judge others to make themselves look or feel better. so i think that once you're really truely happy with yourself and where you are in life, then the judgemental thoughts of others won't come as often
ReplyDeleteIs it easy to be happy with yourself if people are judging you?
DeleteI think in some cases judgement is actually a good thing. For example for a musician being judged can be difficult and hurtful but it is actually a very good thing because it pushes you to do better, practice more and try harder.
