Can We Please Stop?

Can we please stop judging other people’s eating habits?  

Can we please stop judging other people’s life decisions**?

Can we please stop refusing to understand that different people walk different paths in life?

Can we please stop believing that just because our “way” has worked for us doesn’t mean that it will work for everyone else?

Can we please stop defining ourselves by our weight or size of our pants?

Can we please stop assuming that people don’t know what’s healthy and what’s not?

Can we please stop forgetting that we don’t know other people’s stories?

Can we please stop telling overweight people to eat less and move more?

Can we please stop telling skinny people to eat a sandwich?

Can we please stop, take a deep breath, open our hearts, and learn to treat everyone (including ourselves) with compassion?

  1. I agree completely. I too try to treat people with compassion and understanding because we are all individuals and what works for me may not work for you. It is a journey that takes some unexpected turns and a lot of work.
