Judgmental...Who Me?

It isn't a trait that I feel super duper proud of because let's face it, it isn't a compliment to myself. I am judgmental though, and a lot of those things that I'm judgy about? Well, they are rather superficial. Like what others might like...preferences about clothing or music or hair styles.

But I feel like I'm sort of getting my comeuppance. And that is usually what happens to a soul when they are not being very nice.

It all started this past fall. I've gained some weight (what's new). Only this time, it has been really pretty hard to lose...again. I'm working at it, on and off. But it isn't going well at all, and thus the on and off thing. I think I'd work harder if I thought I'd be successful. But it just isn't working out, and it is super duper discouraging.

And then I hear how that sounds, and I think of other people who've said, "I can't lose weight." I was so judgmental about that. It isn't that I judge people for their weight, really. I think it's more about what I deemed to be excuses people made. And that was judgmental. What did I know? I didn't know much. This really stinks, and I now feel sorry for thinking that about others.

Isn't that usually the way? You think you get something, and then experience teaches you that you don't know much.
