Judging Others
Today has been one of those days….I guess you would say it is a Lupus zapping energy day. I tried so hard to get things done but every time I started to do something I ended up back in bed. The nausea was overwhelming and my body ached from head to toe. The more I tried to do something and could not the guiltier I felt, so I had to call my husband and tell him how sorry I was but I couldn’t get out of bed. I so wanted to feel good and be happy and chipper but it is difficult to fake it. I thought about the times when I have been judged for not wanting to do something because I feel so bad and I thought about the times I have judged others unfairly not knowing their situation. This is a lesson I have learned today… to truly not judge others because you never know what their life is like until you live in their shoes. I think back at how many times I have judged others in a negative way and how unfair I was. To judge others is a hurtful act and I vow from this day forward to try my best not to judge others in a negative manner. The next time someone says to you they cannot do something because they are not feeling well or they could not call you back because they were having a bad day, have some compassion and do not judge. On any given day not everyone has as many spoons as you may have whether they are healthy or not. This article will explain the spoons…
