Maybe I am a little too tired, but this is what I think:
Everyone one of us tries to be God.
We judge.
We judge others.
Boiling down the basis of another's actions. Determining whether they deserve heaven or hell. For eternity or for this moment.
Or,
We judge ourselves.
Wondering if we will ever do the right thing or if we maybe have life right.
We don't know.
But,
it makes it a lot easier to guess.
It does.
Yet,
nothing is solved.
Fingers are merely pointed.
Deciding to jam a digit into another's breast bone,
or into our own.
Giving pain like it is something to be passed on-- to take turns with,
or to hurt ourselves so that we don't have to think about what really hurts.
Life already has enough pain and enough answers.
Why try to add more?
Maybe I am just tired,
but that is what I think.
Shalom.

thought provoking....hmmm
agreed.
I try to judge those who judge as well as hypocritically judging who is on the right track and who isn't. It's very frustrating for me. Maybe I just think way too much about trivial things instead of just simply loving God and others. My personal judgment is probably one of the most confusing and difficult areas to understand in my life. So guess what I do. I ignoring it. I keep judging because, as you said, it is easy. Why not just point out others mistakes instead of loving them?
Thanks for writing. It really helps me to hone in on what matters and what doesn't.
