Some times... change that... Most of the time there are people that have something wrong with them or is annoying or rude you judge them and I'm going to give you options for each.
For something is wrong with them (Disability wise): you think 'Oh they are ugly and are totally clueless to what other people are doing.' or you could think 'They are made in God's eyes and they are meant to be what he made them to be they have a purpose in life' in this one at first you might say the first one but if you get to know that person you can see that they have talents like other people, they are just like you even if they look different, A lot of people judge people by their looks, If they don't look the same then they are an out cast. I try to (and I still judge) look past their looks and try to look to see like God would see others and that is that all men are made in his image.
For they are so annoying: you could think 'What is wrong with this person they are just trying to get attention' now the 'They are just trying to get attention' part is almost all the time true unless they are just trying to annoy you but if they are a random stranger they might be trying to get attention for different reasons.
1. They are showing off.
2. They are bored and they are just trying to bring some interesting things in their life.
Or 3. They are trying to get attention because they have abusive parents that don't care about them or has no friends at school.
All of them are most likely to be but the third one has a lot in it because the person just wants to be loved and wants to feel loved by some one and they think that being annoying will get them attention also the first one is the same, that they want attention.
For rude: You could think that 'Oh they hate me' and then you could feel really discouraged but the other thing that you could think is 'They are probably just having a hard day or there is something in their life that is discouraging them or they had a death in the family' you could think that they just are sad or something is just depressing them and not that they hate you because it is probably not you what is making them get mad or be rude.
Now since a lot of people judge one another I challenge you to look through everything in a new way try to feel what they feel and understand that they might just have something hard going on with their life.
Yes. I totally agree we should always try to see the good in people first. Not just jump to the conclusion that they are mean. Great Post Abby!
ReplyDeleteI'm just gonna add one little thing. I totally think that you should try to help people that ate hurting, but also don't let them hurt you or other people. Yes maybe they are having issues, but you should never let them get away with
Yes I should add that in! :)
