Judging requires that you think yourself superior over the one you judge.  (Wm. Paul Young. The Shack.)

 

Wishing you peace and well being as you discover the illusion of your superiority.

All behavior is purposive even though this facet may be obscure to the observer.  Individual's chose to act or not to act because it serves some purpose and utility for them.  (Alfred Adler. The Science of Living)

 

Wishing you peace and well being as you examine the purpose of your behavior and the choses you make.

An old man and his son worked a small farm, with only one horse to pull the plow.  One day, the horse ran away.

“How terrible,” sympathized the neighbors.  “What bad luck.”

“Who knows whether it is bad luck or good luck,” the farmer replied.

 

A week later, the horse returned from the mountains, leading five wild mares into the barn.

“What wonderful luck!” said the neighbors.

“Good luck?  Bad luck? Who knows?” answered the old man.

 

The next day, the son, trying to tame one of the horses, fell and broke his leg.

“How terrible.  What bad luck!”

“Bad luck? Good luck?”

 

The army came to all the farms to take the young men for war, but the farmers son was of no use to them, so he was spared.

“Good? Bad?”

 

When we cease presuming to know what is ultimately good or bad and instead abide in faith – when we meet each moment without judgment or expectations – we live in a different way.  Knowers are an uptight breed, clinging to how things ought to be, solving problems, struggling to make everything come out “right.” (Dan Millman.  Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior.)

 

Wishing you peace and well being as you drop your assumptions and let life unfold.
