Judges

Recently, I've been getting criticism that I am a judge, and no matter how much I try to justify in saying that I just hold opinions of people, it's so evident that I do judge.

Without a doubt, some judgements are not too harsh... like judging professors or food and stuff like that, but I have come to the point where I judge totally based off people's impressions and with that give off negative emotions. I'll even come to judge random people on the road sometimes, and this recent realization startles the crap out of me.

But how does a guy from a life full of pain and loneliness guard his heart from a world that has failed countless times?

I don't want to justify judging anyone anymore. I want to let go of this defensive mechanism that has become a parasite--benefiting itself at the expense of my sanity and peace.

But where do I go from here? How can I even make this applicable in my life?

God, may you meet me where I am.
