Don’t Judge A Gummi By It’s Label

Posted by Aundra

I always seem to be feeling either superior or inferior, one up or one down, better off or worse off than everyone else. The superior moments are elating, but the rare and blessed moments are when I feel equal.

There is no such thing as “best” in a world of individuals.

Why this need to divide up,classify, and neatly package every new acquaintance?

For me to try to classify something so complex as an individual human merely demonstrates my own shallowness. A judgement of another person is an abstraction that adds qualities which are not there and leaves out what is unique. When I classify individuals I turn them into objects. The only way for me to contact other people is to exprience them, not think about them.
