Judging A Book By It's Cover

Have you ever judged someone? If you have you are reading the right post, because after you read this you'll think twice before judging someone again! There are many people in this world who don't think before they speak. Everyone rushes through things once in awhile. The most common mistake made is when a person judges others for who they are. I have seen this happen many times. There are groups of kids just standing and fooling around with their friends and when someone who catches their eye passes by, they immediately start talking about them. Seriously, why don't people mind their own business? Don't judge someone when you haven't gotten the chance to know them.



Once I went shopping with my mom, which was recent, i saw a group of people that looked slightly older than me. They were pointing and whispering at a person and they eventually started laughing. The person noticed this and looked really uncomfortable. The whole time I was watching this, I couldn't see any flash of recognition in their face for the group of people. The only thought in my head was that, why would anyone make assumptions of someone they don't even know! People can also be judged by their appearance. For example, a person can be wearing old clothes and look poor but they can turn out to be the richest person in the world. Some people just don't know that they shouldn't stick their nose in other people's lives.



When it comes to judging people, I am absolutely against it, and if I see anyone else doing this, I will address them directly. One day, I was out with my brother and he did the exact same thing. We were at the park and someone from his school was there. He started telling me that this person is really poor and he doesn't have enough money to afford new clothes. I was really shocked that he would say something like that. So I did what I would naturally do, I told him off and I gave him a lecture on why you shouldn't judge people you don't know, and how bad it is because it may hurt their feelings. I asked him if he had ever talked to that person before. Guess what he said, he said no! So I asked him, " How would you feel if someone you don't know and haven't even talked to once in your life started to judge you just by your appearance?" After that day, my brother learned his lesson and hasn't judged anyone.



I don't get why people judge others. Especially people they haven't talked to before. I think that people who judge others are insecure. Maybe the person judging is unaware that they are doing something wrong. People might or might not know how the person that is being judged feels. Or maybe the person who is judging has been judged before and want others to know how they felt. I don't know exactly what the reason is for why people judge others, it could be anything. But nobody should judge anyone because it can hurt the person being judged really badly, so badly that they could even consider committing suicide.



I have seen many people that judge others but not everyone is the same. Some people don't judge others. You don't get anything out of it except hurting the other person's feelings, so what will you gain from it? If you judge others and are reading this, hopefully after reading my long rant you will agree with me that there is no point in judging others. If not, then it's alright not everyone has the same thinking. In conclusion, i would just hope that you will think about what you're saying about others through from now on.
