Look within yourself

"When you have an emotional reaction to what you see, you are judging. That is your signal that you have an issue inside of yourself - with yourself - not with the other person. If you react to evil, look inside yourself for the very thing that so agitates you, and you will find it. If it were not there, you will simply discern, act appropriately, and move on."

- Gary Zukav

Wow! This quote is right in tune with the post I put up a week or so ago, based off of one of my psychology papers, titled, "Don't be so quick to judge."

It's really amazing how some people really are so judgmental and don't take the time to really think and process what they've been told or have seen with their own two eyes. I really do believe that it does have to do with something inside a person, an issue that one may not like about themselves, an issue that one has to change. That this issue or problem, it comes out in judgment towards another individual or group. It has more to do with this individual rather than the other person or group they are judging.

Look within yourself.
