Judgement

Dear Daughters,

.

One of the most fruitful pathways to experience meaningful growth will be through your ability to listen and love others in non-judgement. The world is overflowing with an abundance of rich cultures, religions, history, art forms, ancient civilizations and so on. Your life represents a tiny piece of the human puzzle, a puzzle that can unite us all. Remember the millions of people who have also been, and who currently are, a part of the puzzle.

Zoom in with an open mind and a desire to genuinely see and hear others. Take every opportunity to sit face-to-face and learn from people who are completely different from you. Be courageous and humble as you seek to understand before being understood. Listen to podcasts and lectures and books, remembering all the while that you do not know it all and there is so much to learn. Your understanding will increase, your eyes will be opened and your love for others will be among your most important guiding core values.

Sweet daughters, choosing to judge robs us of inner growth and separates us from humanity. Leave judgement behind as you seek to hear, to see and to learn from the vast, diverse and breathtaking humanity that surrounds you.
