Not quite sure why we as humans put so much emphasis on status, its like we think because of someones birthright or because of how famous they are or how beautiful they look that somehow we tend to look past who they really are as a person. Why is it that just because someone accomplishes something great in life like writing the next great american novel or starring in the new motion picture or just simply someone who leads a great life, great house, great family, great kids, great.great.great.great.great....and so it is those are great things to have and to achieve, but I think sometimes we get those "things" mixed up with the "who" that someone is not what they did.
How many times have we judged a book by its cover? Well if I were being honest I would have to say about a million times I have done this and about a million times I have regretted it. Even if I was right in my judgement, who am I to judge anybody? I am not God and in my book He is the only one with the right to judge any of us. It is a horrible thing that all people do, like it was ingrained in us since birth or something, like we were taught to just look at the surface and if we didn't like what we saw then there was nothing else we needed to explore, when the sad thing about that is, what if we could have formed something really great with that person we were so quick to turn away, or what if we could have learned something so great if we would have just took a second to realize that the cover of someone is not the contents.
I really hope we can move forward from this horrible thing that we have all done and that has been done to us as well. I hope that every time you catch yourself starting to judge someone before you actually know them, wether it be based on their status in life, how much money they make, how happy they seem, how attractive they are, that you for just a split second remember how you have felt when someone misjudged you and how bad you felt and how wrong you knew they were and how everything inside of you was screaming "but that's not who I really am".....I hope you realize that that's not who that person really is either.
We are all just people, with the same needs and hopefully the same goal, to live a happy wonderful life reaching our dreams and accomplishing all of our aspirations, once you strip someone of their status or lack their of, their clothing, their money, their look, their career, you will begin to see them for who they really are...a human-being just like your self. I bid you all a farewell till tomorrow.
Warm Regards,
