2 for 1 Article - "To Judge or Not To Judge?" (Article 9)
This article is all about how we judge people we see and talk to in our daily basis. The main purpose of the article is to learn some insights on how and how not to make critical judgments regarding the important people in your life. There are really only two purposes of making judgments about people who come and stay, or come and leave your life and that to benefit their life as well as you own. The dictionary has two forms of the word judgment, one having a positive meaning and the other negative. Judgmental being the negative version meaning too willing to criticize others actions and behavior saying that they are wrong. Whereas, judgment says an opinion or estimate formed after consideration or deliberation. Judgment is a deep thought that has the thought of feelings implemented inside of it. Then we have judgmental which is just a quick uncaring and unhelpful criticism. The article brings up the good point of judging people over time. Some of us are really unpredictable when it comes to our outside appearance compared to our personality. The article also says to judge the action not the personality for the same reason as ‘judging a book by its cover’. Another good point is to recognize your limited perspective meaning basically to make sure you have your facts straight before you go ahead and make conclusions about people. Last but not least we need to be thoughtful in communicating because through communication we send powerful messages to each other and we need to make sure we say what we really mean to say before we go ahead and say something we didn’t mean. Therefore, judging is something that should be heavily analyzed.
I loved this article because so much today especially with today’s generation you see al lot of judging. I feel that everyone should really stop and think and ask themselves “Should I really say this?” In the long run we should all appreciate each other and try to keep the judgmental levels on the down low before we start going to war with each other figuratively speaking. Yeah sure someone may not look like someone you can get along with but that is only one piece to the puzzle. There is a personality behind all faces and it can relate to you immensely. With the knowledge of this article I can now use these points and try to convince people to stop what they are doing and be conscious of others and their feelings. This can aklso create many friendships and get rid of the making fun of people scene. It will not be easy to help people understand as some of us are ignorant but it is definitely worth the try because it is something at least I would like to see.
