Judging

Ow.  Judging.  Not a way to personal peace.  Someone important to me once said that when you make comparisons, the result is always negative.  So right.  Judging one thing to be better than another, or one person to be more important than someone else, or comparing the ideal you to the real you always results in something negative.  Who wants more negativity in the world?  Some court cases may have clear outcomes, where the facts completely point to a certain decision, but those are rare.  Even in the supreme court, the results are recorded as 'opinions'.  Fire your internal judge.  The trick here is to recognize that even positive judgements may be dangerous.
