My Biggest Stnank


If I learned one thing at camp this past week it was this: Do not judge people.

In my life I’m always having opportunities to meet new people, but I’m always judging them. Sometimes negatively, and sometimes positively, but it always ends up building a giant barrier between the person and myself. There are so many people that I will never be able to love, never learn from, all because I would rather look at them from a distance than take a chance on getting to know their heart.

I feel like crying right now, as I am typing this, because it is my biggest regret. People enter and leave your life all the time. And sometimes you only have one chance at friendship.

I urge you, readers! Get to know the people around you! Start a conversation. Ask them questions. Build relationships. It’s the only way to live. You cannot spend your whole life being afraid of the people around you. Don’t judge them.
