Episode Synopsis

Written by Marie T. Russell, InnerSelf.com
The focus for today:  I choose to be aware of the judgments I make.

When  we accept things the way they are (accept what is), we feel more at  peace with the world around us. The weather is neither good nor bad --  it simply is what it is. Your opinion or beliefs are not good or bad,  they simply are what they are -- possibly even the opposite of mine.
And  that does not mean that one of us is right and the other wrong. It  simply means we see things from two different perspectives. If my  favorite color is blue and yours is red, does that make one of us right  and the other wrong?
Let's play at  eliminating some words from our vocabulary (or at least from our  concepts.) Ask your mind to alert you each time you catalog something as  good or bad, right or wrong, etc. You might be surprised at how often  we evaluate and judge things as acceptable or not acceptable. It's a  mind opening experience in itself to simply be aware of the judgments we  have been making. And that's not good or bad -- it simply is!
