Thank you so much for your beautiful contribution to what I have said. Perception? Yes, we all have different perceptions and that is where we have to always pray we know how to discern between what is true and false.
I have been very defensive when people judged me, even now. Back then, I try to do the same to them too with every opportunity I get but I learnt that it never helped me. People don’t go to school to learn how to always pass their message in a way that will be pleasing to the other person. They most times say it as it comes to their head and that alone can hurt a person which is the problem as you have mentioned.
Thank you so much for pointing out that I was being defensive with the finger analogy. This post was a message to me first before any other person that read it or will read it (I still judge people, remember?). I’m not sure how others learn if they don’t want to be judged but I know of myself. I can’t stop people from saying things from their perceptive the way it is in their head but I know I can take the truth from them and improve on myself when needed even when it hurts so much. I might even show my hurt but what matters is that they have said something that I know makes sense or is even the truth. Something that a lot of persons won’t say because they don’t want to hurt me. Some truth can’t be sugarcoated. No matter how you say it, it is going to be a judgement.
I try to be my first judge, that’s the bottom line of all that I have said. And that is because I know that I will always be judged either in love or hate. That way, when someone else’s words sound judgy to me, it will be more like a reminder and I’m able to see beyond the judgment.

I guess it boils down to you, Hopey. As we have repeatedly mentioned, you are different and so am I. I think your idea of judgement is different from mine. I’m not sure. You know why it took me so long to respond to this comment? Well, it is because I kept reading it over and over again. I think you are viewing things from a fully positive perspective. Before I continue, maybe I should share my own definition of being judgy with you.
Judging someone means; Seeing someone with tattoos and assuming they are irresponsible or rebellious. Seeing someone who doesn’t go to church and assuming they are unbelievers.
Let me know if this is also your own definition, please.
