Warning: Venting Ahead!
I am so sick and tired of people judging me and criticizing me! I usually find that most of the time when people are critical of me, they don’t know the whole story behind a certain action or process. This is what I say to you, “Walk a mile in my shoes; life my exact live for one month and then criticize me all you want”.
How come other people know exactly what I should and should not be doing and feel “lead of the Lord” to share it with me? Wouldn’t it be easier if God just told ME what I should/should not do and skipped the “middle man”?
Another thing, it amazes me that people who have never had children know so much about parenting.
I’ve been thinking about it, and I’ve come to the conclusion that people who constantly throw negativity at others are extremely unhappy with themselves. Anyone who is happy with their life wouldn’t feel the need to pick apart someone else’s life and dreams. It’s hard for me to believe (but I think it is true) that some people are so miserable that their only release is to cause someone else discomfort.
You’re more than welcome to skip this post because I’m writing this for me more than anything. I just need to type this out and process my feelings.

That last paragraph is filled with wisdom. Thank you Lord that you can see the judgement for what it is and not be fooled into thinking that it is an inadequacy on your part.
ReplyDeleteI think you are doing great and love you my friend. It is hard to do but just take that conversation and throw it away so to speak. Maybe writing the above post was your way of doing that. If so, BRAVO!
All of that is so true...I am so sorry you are being subjected to judgmental people. Life is to short to let those kind of people have any power over you. Let them go...
ReplyDeleteI love you Dear friend Julie! You are a wonderful person! You have a wonderful husband and two beautiful children. I am blessed to know you!
I have discovered that this is what blogging is all about. Letting go of the bad and keeping the good in our lives.
I Love you! (((Hug))) XXXX
