Daily writing prompt

Are you a good judge of character?

View all responses

Judging character is based upon a person’s perspective. What I see some people do not. Biases or racial tendencies cloud a person’s perspective when judging a person’s character. Shall I judge you negatively because of the religion you choose to follow? A religion that hides the truth of leaders? Shall I judge you based strictly on the tone of your skin or your creed? No, I shall not. How you treat individuals on a daily bases will reveal your character, or the depths of your blindness when engaging in human interactions.

Face value equates to how I would like to be treated when engaging with strangers for the first time. Regardless of creed, looks or skin color I will give you my respect from the perspective of human decency. That is unequivocally the best of human form which is the pinnacle of social order.

If I see something within a person who society deems undesirable then I see my potential as a human. If I reach my hand out to help them I have surpassed a society of judgement and persecution to enrich a soul and restore humanity, rightfully. In the perusing act can that society become enlightened to the blindness that has evolved within their perception? That can only be seen in their future actions.
