My New Year’s resolution was going to be ‘stop being so critical’ however I have a degree in critical thought and I’ve come to realise that being judgemental is what makes me good at philosophy. perhaps my loud distaste for many things (and people) is a small vice to spring from my greatest of virtues.
I like this idea of experiencing something, such as trying a new food, and not jumping to a conclusion of it being good or bad, just witnessing all that comes up instead. When we categorize something as good or bad we end up losing a lot of understanding. It’s the easy way out that gets you no where special. Life has a lot more colors than black and white.
Sometimes we are scared since people might not respect that space. But let's give it to ourself first, curled up under our blankets. Just don't fall asleep before you give it to yourself!
