Judging or observation?

It is not for you to judge the journey of another's Soul. It is for you to decide who you are, not who another has been, or has failed to be.



I like seeing people act with integrity and unselfishly, not focused on greed at the expense of others. Nobody gets away with anything. Sometimes people think they're being slick by maligning or slandering another, for example, and they think they're getting away with something, but God sees everything.



I too sometimes fall into this trap. I'm no better or worse than anyone. I strive for righteousness and do my best. I'm quick to correct my faults if I notice any and would never intentionally wrong another.



Often we make "observations" not necessarily judgments. A person playing with fire increases their chances of being burned its inevitable, not a judgment just an observation.



For every action there is an equal opposite reaction, it is just the nature of things. Sowing bad seeds, yields a bad unproductive harvest...under nourished. Sowing good seeds upon good fertile ground yields an abundant harvest. Here again, just an observation.



Now for the individuals that choose to sow bad seeds...when they could have spent that very same time sowing good seeds...again their harvest will be their own. We all will reap what we have sown. Not a judgment, just an observation. That’s my humble opinion.



Passing judgment on another's soul's journey is an exercise in futility anyway. Their journey is THEIR reality, not yours, and unless you can walk in their shoes, you can't know what has brought them to where they now are.



We are innately more alike as mortal beings then we are different. When one is truly honest with their own heart, let it be that a mortal being is not perfect. The judgment is not for us to call.



Everyone has one's own reason for being, and is responsible for--not you.



Don't take life so seriously... let go and be silly often! The only difference between try and triumph is a little umph.
