Growing up, you see alot of people go before you. Some make good choices, some.... not so much. At the same time each person has his own tenets and dogmas that he lives by. Recently, I've found myself so upset when looking at the lives of my friends. All I could see was their errors in judgement and it annoyed me. I would look at their lives and think to myself why they were wrong and what they should be doing instead. Then, whenever one of my friends came to me and he "was at his whit's end" all I could say to myself was, "how immature." Out of nowhere it occurred to me that I am not responsible for the mistakes that others make. I know most people already know that, but something inside of me cares too much. My mistake was the basis on which I was judging them. I believe certain things...I think certain things and if the actions and choices of others didn't match up with that, I had a problem. Naive of me, I know. Anyways, I've learned that while I believe my beliefs to be "right", not everyone does. The only thing I can base my observations on is the Word of God.
This is completely and totally out of the blue, but its a natural part of growing up... so Dear Friends, I'll no longer judge you or look down on you simply because of what I think, rather I'll live based on my convictions and beliefs and hoepfully(I'll try my hardest) I'll be an example of someone who lives righteously and according to God's word.
