Life is too short to be so judgmental. Why does it bother you if someone is a different race, has a different sexual preference, or is the opposite sex? Why when we see a beautiful flower we pick it, or a new animal we capture it? Why do people need to feel superior and make others feel inferior? Why can’t we just appreciate beauty without killing or capturing it? Why cant we see difference as beauty?
If we were all the same, that would be pretty boring. Unfortunately, throughout the years so many people have been conditioned to hate things about themselves due to society’s definition of beauty or normalcy. So many people have hidden aspects of themselves and feared being who they genuinely are, simply because society said, “No, that’s not the norm.” Living in shame over something you were born with is absurd. The fact that human kind has made people feel this way for centuries is a complete and total shame.
Have you ever wondered how many amazing people we lost to suicide because they were gay or bisexual or enjoyed dressing like the opposite sex? How many people lived their whole lives hating themselves because of the skin they were born in? Why do we do this to one another? We spend so much time looking at others and judging, all the while, we are throwing stones from a glass house, and for what? Seriously. I will never understand racism—to me, its like for centuries we’ve been arguing over the best color in a crayon box like a bunch of 5 year olds. Time wasted. You’re white? Great. You’re light brown? Amazing. You’re dark skinned? Beautiful. Who cares and why? Fighting over someone’s sexual preference also makes no sense to me. How does someone else preferring a same sex relationship affect me? Simple answer, IT DOESN’T. And to all the people complaining that same sex relationships are being normalized and its becoming a “trend” to be gay/bi whatever….. You are the reason its being put everywhere. Had our ancestors spent less time making people feel ashamed of who they were we wouldn’t be dealing with this today because it would have already been normalized.
I know this will be a controversial post, and it is what it is…. I just think life would be so much better lived spending time doing something other than judging others for things that in no way affect us. If your child is gay/bi/trans or if their one race and want to date someone of another race, they are going to be who they are no matter where they see it or if they don’t see it at all. So why spend so much time treating these things like they are contagious. I am a white heterosexual married God fearing woman. Let God do the judging, and let us all just stay in our own lane!!
Live and let live.
