Reply To: Youthful Misconceptions

I used to think it’s okay to judge people from the way they look, he dresses that way so he must be bad! And anyway who said we should judge in the first place?? I also didn’t ‘know’ that you are meant to give people benefit of doubt, I knew the concept, but never in reality. I still stumble and struggle in these areas, but we’re getting there! I just heard from Rabbi Weinberger yesterday a cute saying that was so relevant to exactly this point, ‘people who judge don’t understand, and people who understand don’t judge’. Shame I didn’t learn this as a child but that’s the journey
