We’re going to talk about judgment today. When one judges the other, when the other judges the people. Mother Teresa of Calcutta, she has a beautiful phrase, which is like this: “If you judge, you have no time to love.” And I believe this phrase deeply. Because when it begins to judge the other, or circumstance, or life.

This is good, this is not good, that’s right, this is wrong. Ended. Chance to love goes away. When I begin to judge myself, the chance to love is gone, too. If I focus on love, I can not judge at the same time. And judging is very interesting, how will you judge the other without putting on the other’s shoe? How will you judge the other without treading the other’s path? Experiences are different, experiences are different.

What’s important to me is not worth anything to you. What is important to you may not have any meaning to me. It does not make sense to me. If in my childhood it was a rare thing to have an apple in the house, I might be fighting for an apple today. If in your childhood you lived on a farm, where you only ate an apple, you may be appalled by the apple today. Realize? And we need to understand that. It is very easy for the other to point the finger and not judge. Too easy. There’s even that symbol, when you point at the other, it has three fingers pointing at you and at each other.

You need to look at yourself and not at each other. And this also refers to self love. Do you understand that it’s a come and go? How the other will judge you, how will you judge the other if you have not lived his life, or his story? You may not want the other in your life, you can define this. But, you have no right to judge the other, much less the other has the right to judge you. Sometimes the other one says, you do not have willpower, you’re lazy, you’re that, you’re that.

What does he know about your life? Does he know how much it costs for you to get up in the morning, smile, go to work, go build your story? He knows nothing. And you know? Why is my biggest goal here, how much are you judging? Do you know? You will say, “Obviously Leah, I wake up in the morning, and ours, how difficult it is to get up, smile, go to work.” Or not. Do you know the value of this? Do you recognize your qualities of overcoming? Do you recognize your greatness in the midst of all this? Your strength and your courage.

That’s my question.

Do you recognize how incredible you are at various times in your life? When you make a difficult decision to take. When you determine and move on despite the obstacles. When you overcome a pain, and how many you did not overcome by the way? When you reach out to a friend. Have you ever stopped to think, or are you judging yourself? I’m crap, I’m no good, I can not, I’m lazy …

How is this relationship with you? Are you judging yourself? Stop and think. It is time to recognize what you have of good, the light that shines within you. Do not judge the other, no. Love. But, do not judge you, no.
