I come from the stance that
“Thank God i don’t have that job”
I don’t want to judge people
That would be exhausting
And what if I’m wrong?
I don’t want that on my conscience
Even when people ask me to judge them
I sometimes hesitate
And yet I can sense that people feel judged by me
Because I do like to take people in
I like to see who they are
What they say
How they say it
Their stance
Their energy
Their movements
Like the caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland
I like to see “who are you?”
And to me the true testament to my not judging them
Is that it isn’t until later
Upon further pondering
That I can gauge how I felt about them on a personal level
And put my own thoughts into the equation
But...
Typically I never have to revisit and ask myself that
So I can generally just take someone in and be like
Wow
Ok
That’s you
Cool
And come from a place of acceptance to whoever that is
And not attach any value to it
Good or bad
The only time I force myself to attach value to people
Is when I must decide if I want to continue to see them
And interact with them
And then in that case I do lend myself to the task of judging
Not so much the person per se
More so I judge whether I want to expend any more time and energy on this person
That is my one judgement I guess
But that seems benign
When we talk about the normal judgment people tend to think of
When one says
Judgment.
Or at least that’s what I tell myself. Lol
