Judgments, Our Judgments

We all have an image in our minds of the person we think we should be, don’t we? But how close is that ideal version to the person we actually are? What determines the distance between these two? Judgments, our judgments.

They are the cornerstones of our lives, our rights and wrongs. We carry them like medals that define us, proudly defending them when necessary, living our entire lives by them. Our actions, decisions, and choices are always aligned with what is considered “right”—with our judgments.

We learned to divide life into good and bad, right and wrong, mostly from fairy tales where the good guys always win. But guess what? Real life isn’t a fairy tale.

To live without judging anyone or anything, to see things as they are rather than obsessing over how they should be—sadly, we were never taught this. Neither at home nor at school. We were taught many things, but we were never asked: What do you know?

And because no one asked us, we never asked ourselves. Instead, we asked others— books, teachings, parents, ideologies we believed in. We carried our questions from door to door, looking for someone to give us answers. But we never asked: What do I know? What am I aware of? We never looked inside; we always searched outside.

Because this is what everyone does, because this is the system we live in, it doesn’t seem all that strange. But in truth, it is madness. And yet, even within this madness, we can still create a life of our own choosing. We can align with our awareness rather than fitting into the rigid framework of right and wrong.

Consciousness includes everything and excludes nothing—except one thing: judgment.

Judgments are like burdens we unknowingly carry in every area of our lives. Some come from others, some from collective consciousness, and some are the judgments we place upon ourselves. But who do they really belong to? And what kind of life could we create without them?

Judgment isn’t just a mental process; your body records every single one. Every negative thought directed at yourself or others creates an energetic weight. Over time, these accumulated judgments can manifest as physical discomfort, weight issues, and even premature aging.

What happens when you let go of judgment? Could you create a lighter, freer, and more joyful life? Releasing judgments is not just a mental process—it is an energetic cleansing.

So, how about a challenge? For one whole day, don’t judge anyone, anything, and most importantly, yourself. Try it for just a day and see how your awareness shifts. Remember, living without judgment expands your choices and brings you closer to your true potential. And then, ask yourself:

“Who am I in a space of no judgment? What entirely new possibilities exist beyond everything I’ve seen and known so far?”

Wishing you the lightness of a life without judgment.

With love…
