Matthew 7:1
1. Judge not, that ye be not judged.
A human being is a lifetime --
not a tattoo, an accent, a smell, a careless word, a thoughtless deed.
No single action or event defines a person, drawing an outline
into which the person must always be pushed in to fit.
A person is boundless, for the soul can not be pinned down and tagged, shelved
into categories in pullout drawers. Judgment is narrow. It points
to this act and that intent. It can speak factually about the matters of a moment --
but it cannot probe into the infinite depths of being. It cannot know
the true love of a human heart... the true pain.
We see what issues forth with no regard for what lies beneath:
a human being just like me.
Or, perhaps... that's the problem.
