So it has come to my attention that I may be a judgemental B. I wish it wasn't true but I am starting to realize that I often judge people by just a few pieces of what I see about them. I can't go into too many details because I am starting to realize that people in my real life actually read this blog but I will just give loose references to get my point across.
I know that I often judge people who have a lot of money. I sneer at how they spend there money, think to myself how nice it must be for money to not matter and to be able to buy what ever it is your heart desires and not think about it. I often judge and think that they do not live in the real world. Yet if I am being honest, I am judging them because I am jealous. I wish I could buy things like they do. I wish I could live a lifestyle like that. I am judging them for no other reason than jealousy.
Another example is political beliefs. I am often admittedly to liberal for my own good. I find myself casting a stink eye at those with a republican flair to them. I often think how could a woman allow her rights to be taken away, how could someone not want to take care of those less fortunate in society. Yet, in reality I am just unwilling to look deeply at my own beliefs and be willing to have them challenged by others
The final example is the one I will be most vague about. I have cast a few unsightly judgements about some of the people I work with. I often see how they interact with other people and cast judgements on them. I know that recently I have done this a lot and I think it has to do with certain of my own insecurities. I know that I am judging them not on my own personal knowledge of them but perhaps gossip or snap judgement by a few interactions I have seen them in.
Well I was recently proven wrong and it has made me think that maybe I am a bit too judgemental. I do think it is part of human nature to make judgments on people. I just know that I am not happy with this aspect of myself. I think that I need to stop getting wrapped up in gossip, my own insecurities/personal stuff, and snap judgements and really take a step back. Take a moment in the case with the people I work with be sure I know the real them, in the case of the first two items to take a moment and think about why I feel the way I do.
I know this is a bit of rambling but it was something that I needed to get out and off my chest. So what about all you...do you judge others more than you should?

I think it's human nature!
