Lets Stop Being So Judgmental

So this is a space where I choose to be completely open and honest with my audience because I want my readers to feel something when they read my writings. So here I am again, unfiltered outspoken and honest.

What I am about to talk about really gets on my nerves. I am not sure if I am the only person who notices it or if it is now considered "normal behaviour" and I am not even quite sure if I am sure as hell just has not caught on or if I just have my head turned in another direction.

For starters, it is impossible to know another persons' life, better than that person. So, I will never understand how somebody can judge anybody else's life and talk or gossip about it as if they honestly know it. 

Reality check: You don’t.

Who are you to call shots on why Jason decided to move schools or why Stacey just does not really like pickles? That is ridiculous. Why can you not focus on your own personal life?

I can tell a lot about a person by what they choose to see in me. That means, if you are going to ask me about anything other than asking me how I am, then you lack the basic respect to be a part of my life. I am tired of dealing with those types of people and I would like to make that clear because it just throws me off and it also shows me that you really could not care less about how I might be personally feeling or how I am doing- You are more intrigued by what I did after I got off work... Get out of town.

Todays' society sees us all talking more and thinking less. The essence of a real and meaningful conversation with one another has vanished. But where to? Instead, we are choosing to make sense of one’s life by creating unnecessary drama. Does it not get exhausting? People are very satisfied with the bullshit that they hear and they are only curious for the sake of it on a daily basis.  

It is no surprise that suicide rates among teenagers are much higher than ever before.

True, maybe I have a big heart and care about tons of people but hey, they’ve earned their place in my life. But more on topic, I’m honestly concerned with the distorted level of ignorance some people carry.

So, "you over there Sharon, say you swear that girl has slept with tons of guys and is never going to find a guy who really respects her. But Sharon, have you had a conversation with her or made the effort to get to know that girl? Or are you just so in love with what she does on a daily basis? Better yet, does she even sleep with guys or is that just something that you heard? Actually, who really cares if she sleeps with guys? So, Sharon, you are just spreading very false information about a person that you do not even honestly know anything about. See, absolute bullshit and I am tired of seeing it and I am even more tired of hearing it 

It is so easy for me to help others and feel hurt when they are hurting because I genuinely want other people to be happy. However, when that same level of consideration is not being returned or when people do not see just how their lack of consideration and respect for people is very hurtful to others... The only thing that I know to do is to try to turn away.

Do not ask me stupid questions, because you have no right to stick your head in my life. I think that it is absolutely pathetic that people feel the need to make up assumptions and to try to find out the juicy gossip of another persons' life. On the other hand, I will tell you what is even juicier, is a person who can talk about why they wear the same sweatshirt every single day, why they like the colour purple or the colour blue, they have ambitions to do things like 'conquer the world' and a person who is happy to know how you are doing... That is what I want to hear and that is what I will start to get other people that I associate with day to day to also talk about.

Let's stop being so damn judgemental of other people.
