One of the greatest and hardest challenges in life is being free from the burden of judgement. The burden is not only heavy when you are receiving it but when you are giving it as well. We live in a society so enamored with appearance and the way that things "seem" to look on the surface that people always make up there mind of who you are based on their limited perception. Think about how incredibly erroneous that is. "Oh he lives over there so he is such and such". "She dresses like this so she most be that." "He didn't do good in school so he is going to be a failure in life." Blah blah blah. Everyone has an opinion and none of them matter. Truth is nobody on this earth knows you completely enough to put a label on your life. The only person that see's, hears,feels and experiences what you do is YOU! Nobody can belittle YOUR experience and neither can you theirs. Think about how even within your own family you probably only spend a few hours a day,week or month with them. You have no clue what your cousin,friend or associate is doing or going through at this very moment. **** the chatter and define your life, for you. You will never be good enough in the eyes of most people and honestly most of them only project their own insecurities on you anyway. I had to do project research today for work and in doing so I had to study online profiles. I don't social network so I didn't realize how many dudes take pictures in the mirror with their shirts off and I felt that it was a feminine act and pretty lame. Then I self reflected and corrected myself realizing I was wrong. Why do we allow our delusional standards of what's ok cloud our ability to see with clarity and non judgement?
