I Am Divergent

I know I am a weirdo. I am divergent in how I see the world around me. To be honest it can be a little lonely. I am made differently and I thank God for it. It doesn’t stop me from being in the community and doing my daily work. It’s just something that I live with. Some people look at me and probably wonder what in the world he is talking about. My heart and head can be interesting places to encounter. I suppose the way I learn and understand stuff in life makes me look at things from a unique perspective. I am grateful to those who put up with me for all my faults and quirks. I am who I am and that is all I can say.

Sunday Reflection – Everyone Is Judgy

I am judgy. I am also human. With those two things being said I can say that everyone is a little judgmental. I hope partly because we need some level of judgment in order to keep ourselves out of trouble and avoid danger. But the truth is that we all judge one another.

We all label, we all assume. Is it right? Is it good? I would say that our imperfections lead us to do those things.

The thing we have to do is not use that as an excuse to treat others poorly although it happens due to human nature. My friends, we have to work on being judgy. It is hard work but worthy work. I just hope we learn to be in a community where we can live with one another despite our faults and other stuff.

Love despite the labels. Judge not or try not to. Be curious, that might be the remedy for being judgy.
