Occasionally, I have a moment where someone or something sets me to thinking of some life truths that need to be applied to my life. Here is today's missive:
Note to Self:
Before you feel the need to comment on someone else's life and how they choose to live it, check out your own, without the rose colored glasses. Take a retrospective stroll down the hazy memories of your past.
Take away the excuses for what you've done or didn't do while wrapped up in the passions of love or hate, caught in the throes of desperation, desire or addiction or while you were just plain stuck on stupid.
If you truly do that, if you honestly judge yourself and your actions prior to judging someone else I bet that you'll put down the magnifying glass or forget about tossing that stone.
If you can't look at and accept someone objectively when they are trying to do better and turn their life around, then walk away and mind your own business. I'm sure you can find more than a few things in your own life that need the deep attention of your scrutiny.
