Judgments

In my lifetime someone's action doesn't always explain why they did it. We can't tell if a shooting is malicious or self defense ,a gun to the head might of been cruel but who was the victim and whose the criminal. In this life time getting a interview for a job the applicant must judge if your friendliness was genuine or was it for self interest . Is it because of ones wants ?  We make judgements without really knowing someone. Our attributions has it's consequences. Because we may know the situation but not why the person acted out in this way. Think about it a wealthy man may judge a poor man whose unemployed . He may say he deserves to be poor because he doesn't work for what he wants. But that poor man may have struggled , worked , went through so much and did more than the guy who may pass by and judge him. Poverty is a hell of a thing you can't know who's trying and who's not . You can't sit down and let the words "people generally get what they deserve " escape your mouth cause your a fool if I was the type to judge. You don't know anything about that poor man who's sitting on the corner we don't even know if he had an education you don't know and I don't know . But tell me if it was you and I living with that same poor education , lack of opportunity , and discrimination . Now tell me would we be better off ? To understand something you must think how you would be in that situation .even then people won't understand . Judgments are made by fools the point to remember is attributions to individuals situations or dispositions have real consequences
