valancystirlingI'm really trying to stop myself everytime I say or think something critical or judgmental about someone else. Let's just say if I were to receive an electric shock every time I condemned someone to hell, I would have been dead a very long time ago.
I've gotten into this fun habit of immediately criticising anything someone does that I don't understand. Isn't that nice? Because in the grand scheme of things, it's totally my place to judge, right? This is possibly the single most evil thing a person can do, something people have done to me at various times, and something that i need to NOT DO. I'm working on it. But still, there are a couple of journals i read for WHATEVER reason, that make me cringe every single time and think, WHY are they like that, their priorities are all fucked up. And maybe they are fucked up, but again, not my place. I need some perspective. Surely I'm not holding people up to the standard of...me? Because if that's the case then holy fuck the world is in serious trouble. It's rather ironic, that i seem to have such a low opinion of myself, except when it comes time to compare others to my own personal standards of character and rightness. I don't get it. At least I'm aware of it though, and not happy about it.
Interview in a little over an hour. Yippee.
