Perhaps you have heard the admonishment, "Judge not, that ye be not judged." (Matthew 7:1) In other words, do not judge unless you want to become that judgment. Some people might question this, asking, "Are you saying that if I break my leg and it really hurts, then I should pretend my leg is not broken and does not hurt?" No, I am not suggesting that you deny your experiences. In fact, it is imperative to acknowledge your experience. What I am saying is that a judgment is a negative and unnecessary interpretation of your experience. If you decide that because your leg is broken and hurts, your life is ruined, you have judged yourself and your situation. Likewise, if you declare your life not worth living and in turn curse your existence, you have again judged yourself.-John Morton, DSS
