THE ISSUE ON JUDGMENT

It is a common thing for many to play pretend. Most people fake ignorance for a simple reason; they cannot face reality and they need to escape from it.

It is like the frog in the well analogy. They only look from that fixed scope of life. Nothing more because they refused to come out of it. They refused to accept that there is something bigger than that. A life much bigger than them.

We all view life based on our experiences but how fair can it be? We have not seen everything. In fact, we will never be able to go through EVERYTHING in life. It is like playing a game of choices. You are given 2 choices in the first stage. After you have made your choice, you might never be able to come across the choice that you have forsakened for the one you chose in the subsequent stages.

It is only fair for us to leave room for doubt. We should give each and every thing the liberty to be something we have not came across. It is only fair that we resist judging. That is when we can truly see a person for the person he really is or a thing for a thing it really is.

The state of confusion only happens when we refuse to accept the person or thing just because we do not understand the rational or even simply for what it really is. We cannot say something or someone is crazy just because we do not understand the theory behind it.

Most of the time people quarrel because they do not understand what each other is trying to say. Each individual is trying to make the other understand his point but we often forget that listening and understanding each other is equally important for us to have effective communication.

Counsellors act as mirrors for their patients. They do not tell their patients what is wrong or right. They let the patients see it for themselves.

There is no clear definition to many issues in life. Let us be liberal and give the benefit of the doubt to many incidents that will occur in our life. Probably by doing so, we can expect a much fuller understanding of life without having to force it to flow in our desired way of life.
