After almost 3.5 years of not posting a blog or posting a private blog, I decided to post one today.
I was browsing through my Facebook and was "liking" whatever I found interesting, touching, funny, or something that someone I like has posted and realized that I'm practicing a habit of judging. We often hear not judge people, situations, or ourselves but the way the society is moving, we are trained to judge on a daily basis.
Social media is a huge thing now!! Everyone is connected through social media, you get your news updates, friend updates, and etc. from social media as well. On a daily or hourly basis, we go on Facebook or twitter or Instagram or whatever other social media networks are out there and "like", "follow", "share" what we like or if its posted by someone we like. We comment whether we agree or we don't. As we are scrolling through Facebook, we are looking for things to "like".
So even for something simple as looking at someone's photo, we are training our brain to judge by physically clicking on that thumbs up button. Its our human nature to judge and there is nothing wrong with it, but through our everyday lifestyle, we are training ourselves to judge.
Sometimes we forget that its okay to not judge and just experience. There are also some people who freak out if they or someone else is judging. Just maintaining that fine balance and being okay with the situation is more pleasant than judging ourselves or others on whether they are judging or not!
