Judgment by Chessa Peak
I find myself spinning the concept of “Judgment” in my head… this is how I relate to the concept.
As humans we are physiologically incapable of not passing judgment. This is how we have adapted and survived as a species. Eat this plant versus the plant that killed my friend Ug. Cross the road or wait. Which characters do I associate with best in my social interactions. Personally, I tried to live without judgment.
That is partially where my integrity broke down. I was feed the mindset that being judgmental meant I was a bad person. I find that if I don’t critically assess the people and situations I place 
myself in, I land myself in a hole before I know I’ve stepped in it. I believe this be because my spirit is so big and powerful that I live that fast intrensically.
I don’t need drugs, alcohol, or men to contribute to this accelerated rate of life. I do this naturally. It’s my spirit. So for me, the ability to cast proper and healthy judgment for what I find acceptable or not has become a crucial survival skill and has helped me become responsible towards my personal evolution. I hope this finds you well. Cheers loves!
