The interesting thing is that when you go into conclusions you shut off your intuition. If you see the woman in front of you with all the junk food who is overweight and you don't judge, but stay open, you might get an awareness that she's just had a miscarriage and is coping the best she can, or if you see the person speeding and you instead of the "maybe" scenario ask to have awareness where it can make a difference, you can often get an insight into the "why's" and offer prayers and blessings for whatever others are going through.<br /><br />Not that I don't go into judgment myself. It's only human. But I realized that we are all connected and we can actually find out the stories, if we actually CARE about others and open our intuitions and our hearts. I found that out when not personally emotionally involved because I'm the person people come to with the "so and so did x" stories. (even total strangers!)<br /><br />It's interesting--I'll be able to tell someone "it was just having a bad day" or "there's something going on with their boyfriend or husband and it's stressing them out--stay out of their way" or "they seem a little self absorbed and their energy is wrapped up tightly--do they dump on you a lot?" And if it's the case I'll talk a little about self-respect and boundaries.<br /><br />We're all processing something all the time--if we're open to inquiry and awareness and can use this to offer energy, prayers, and comfort on one hand--or appropriate boundaries on the other--then not making assumptions is a great thing.<br /><br />It's so totally like being a kid and refusing to eat something you don't like and never have tried because your friend doesn't like it. And then finding out "WOW it's GOOD!"<br /><br />Thanks, Meadow!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078425367485991464.post-39496415408696783622012-04-07T15:06:44.860-07:002012-04-07T15:06:44.860-07:00We don't know the whole story, even about ours...We don't know the whole story, even about ourselves!

All the way there he was giving himself a head trip. Finally after knocking on the door of the farmhouse and being greeted by the farmer he said "I don't want your darned job!" and walked away, lol.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09676889985529767445noreply@blogger.com
