Personal Narrative: Judging People
Have you ever judged someone completely inaccurately? Do not judge others, you don't know their story. People judge others all the time even if they don't know them. With this belief, my community would change because when people don't judge harshly, they are nicer individuals. So everyone would be nicer, more open and more generous. Without this belief the exact opposite would occur, people wouldn't be as nice, they would be less open minded and less generous. As well as not judging, another thing I believe is that you have got to be broken to be built. I have been broken more times than I could remember. But every time it happens I rise up once again and things are better. With this belief, fewer troubles would occur within my community, …show more content…
In elementary school I had a friend named Jake. He has autism and is kind of weird because of that, so no one ever really hung out around him except for me in elementary and middle school. I looked past differences and saw how he was actually a pretty cool guy. I met Jake in the second grade because he reminded me of a friend I used to have back when I lived in Seattle, his name was Alexander and he also had autism, but during the period of time that we were friends I was 4 years old so I really didn’t even know how to judge anyone yet. But throughout my friendship with Jake, just looking around seeing as how he barely had any friends I truly saw how judgmental some people were, and I learned from that. If more people would have seen the better side of him then they would learn this as well. My community would change with this belief, because when people don't judge harshly, they are nicer individuals. So everyone would be nicer, more open and more generous. They would change for the better; taking more things into consideration is a good thing. Without this belief the exact opposite would occur, people wouldn't be as nice, they would be less open minded and less generous. It would be pretty hard for some people. People judge others all the time even if they don't know them, but you should not judge others because you don’t know their

    It is very easy to believe that our own way of doing thing is correct and anyone different is wrong or inferior. This is due to a lack of understanding of the unknown. When we start to understand more about the unknown it becomes the known and so is more acceptable to us. So by understanding and respecting the beliefs of others we can learn very much.…

    What do you see when you look in the mirror? Are you pleased, or do you immediately come up with an endless list of insecurities? As a child one of my favorite memories was laying around the house with my older sister on rainy days. We would leave the windows open so we could hear the rain coming down on the tin roof over our patio, while watching reruns of our favorite tv show “America's Next Top Model”. I always thought that these women were gorgeous and I would catch myself constantly comparing their looks to my own. I wanted to be just like them until I realized the unrealistic expectations that they had to live up to. A sizeable butt and breasts, but not too large; they have got to be proportional. A skinny waist, impeccable hair, blemish free face although even with clear skin you are expected to cake on makeup because no one is actually pretty without mile long eyelashes, the perfect smoky eye, and exemplary contouring. Society has idolized these things as “beautiful” and shamed the girls that do not meet these standards; however, society should be making everyone feel confident in their bodies. Girls need to know that it is okay not to have an “hourglass figure” so they don’t…

    The social-emotional domain is most of interest to me. As Humans we interact pretty much throughout our lives, our emotions often play a large role on how we develop socially and how that ties to our emotions. From birth we gradually start to develop these relationships with the people around us. Over time this process of learning to communicate, share, and interact with others takes many years to develops. We continue to develop these skills into our teenage years, and even as young adults. So with that I do believe that the development in this domain is mostly a continuous one.…

    Everyone will judge others, even though they should not, but who cares? I made a deal with myself to live life without caring anymore, at least not as much like before. Until I die you will continue to find me helping people. My mom would always tell me you will hit some rough patches in life but you will get through whatever it is. Ever since I was a child, I knew I could go to my parents for anything because everybody makes mistakes, and those mistakes you learn from. The way I see life now that I am older is in a wider view compared to if you were to ask me sixth…

    I use the advice you gave Dan almost every day. I get teased about my schedules. I just asked my daughter to tell me what we have to get accomplished by ten tonight. She gave me a list of things and I wrote them down. We worked together to plan the order of events to make sure everything gets done. Both of my girls write out list when there are multiple tasks to complete in a day. This shows that it is a learned behavior for those who do not use sequence at a use first level.…

    My mother, sister, and I were driving down Highway 124 on a hot July day when my mom screamed and slammed on the breaks. Fear rushed through our bodies. Outside the car window, a short young African American man was launched into the air. As he came down, a loud boom sounded as his body helplessly rolled off the hood of the faint green Toyota Corolla in front of us. The man lay motionless in the road while we waited for what seemed like hours for the driver to exit the car. His red shirt and gym shorts were ripped. The driver of the opposing car threw the vehicle in reverse in a spasmodic action in an attempt to end the man’s life. The injured man made an effort to crawl onto the Wendy’s sidewalk, forcing his body up on the curb to evade the car. The driver drove up onto the curb and blew its tire, just barely missing the wounded man. Realizing the driver would stop at nothing, my mother drove her white suburban in front of the car, blocking the violent perpetrator from doing any further damage.…

    It was grand Final day at the Wimborne sports ground my stomach was churning inside of me. I Stumbled to my hands and began to throw up in one of the shrubs in the car park. I was interrupted by dads laughing “You sissy stop begin a girl and get with your team we’ve got a grand final to win!” I replied back “Well actually dad if you remember, the only reason our team made it to the grand final was because of me” my dad just laughed and said “Sure, sure whatever you believe Aden”. The only reason dad named me Aden was because my dad believed that one day I would hopefully grow up as some tough rugby league super star like Greg Inglis or Sam Thaiday. But no I am nothing more than a sticker figure, with shorter hair and gleaming blue eyes. Every…

    This was the scare of my life . I was cruising dirt roads in my jeep with a couple of friends, and we weren’t making very good choices that day . we were all drinking beer even though we were only 16, and I decided to try and show off for my friends and drift around a corner . Well needless to say that did not turn out very well at all. We made it around the corner and then i saw a truck coming our direction. So i tried to straighten it out before I should have and we slid out of control and hit the ditch while sliding sideways and hit a fence which caused us to start to tip over but somehow i turned the wheels just right and saved it . After we were back on all four tires we slid across the road and just barely missed the truck…

    Life is like a masquerade, everyone wears a mask to conceal their flaws, weaknesses, fears, and past mistakes. Everyone wears a mask to hide the fact that they’re human. Humans aren’t perfect; humans fuck up from time to time and sometimes, failure can lead to success. Failure can lead society to a different path, a brighter future. The wisest and most intelligent people are the ones that make mistakes and learn from them.…

    There is not one person out there that does not have a belief. If you accept it and you feel that it as the truth or if it exists then I belief it’s a belief. One of my many believes now is “Everything will turn out all right”. Every bad story has a happy ending, well that’s the way I see it now. Shortly after graduating high school, I began working at a hospital and I worked there for a few years, but soon things began to change as we got a new manager, people began to leave, new people came on board and shortly they began to let people go because of budget cuts. I didn’t think much about it until I was let go suddenly. At the moment I was speechless that so many thoughts were running through my head that I just walked out without saying a word.…

    I believe what’s wrong with the world is that, we as people don’t accept others for who they completely are. We are constantly in competition with the next person or belittling the other because they are not like use. We are not all made the same. Yes, all of our brains are constructed alike but we all think differently. As William James believed “All activities of the mind serve to help us survive.” This is true, but we must remember that we all think, feel, and learn differently. We are all here to survive in different ways. We were all put on earth for different reasons and we should accept that. The world would be such a better without the stereotypes or people having to feel they are pressured to be someone else and not fulfill their own goal. If we all worked together with our differences the world would connect so much better. What’s wrong with the world is that people are so judgmental, when our own God isn’t. We have to do better as the human race.…
