"I am right." - Some people I know used to think that what they think is right. I don't blame them though because I'm also like that. But what I don't get with these people (and how I differ from them) is that they impose what's right for them to be right for all. They don't think that what's right for them is not necessarily right for others. We as human beings have different experiences and so our views of what's right and what's wrong also differs from each other. And if a person did not experience another person's experience, how can he say that he's right if he's on the same situation. Yes, he's allowed to share his opinions but should not make the right assumptions. "I know you." - If someone says he knows you, that's not true. The only person who knows you is yourself. Our friends usually say these words to either make us do or not do something we might plan of doing. If you ask a friend what he would do if he was you, he does not tell you things of what you can possibly do but tell you things of what he can do. He wants to happen what he wants to happen, and so, what you want to happen will never happen. Our family also claim that they know us better than anyone else but never did they understand us. They'd say that they know you since you were still a baby - but did they know what were you thinking since you were a baby? No, that's why they can't understand why a baby cries over a toy they refuse to buy. And so, even if you're all grown up, they still can't tell if they really know you because they failed to understand you. It's funny when people tell you who you are without them asking you who you really are. If someone tells you who they are, believe them! "You don't listen." - A lot of people say this to other people. In my opinion, the person who says this is the one who doesn't listen at all! When a mother scolds her son, she gets mad because he did not listen to her when he tries to explain what happend. When a wife nags on her husband, he walks away because he thinks she wouldn't listen anyway. When a friend says something to disprove what the other friend is saying, the other friend says "whatever, you don't listen." The point of having a conversation in the first place is to know what the other party knows. If someone is not interested with a conversation, he cuts it off by either stopping the conversation or walking away from the conversation. Why? Because he can't stop himself from listening. And yet, the person who doesn't want to listen to the conversation is the person who usually gets upset and says, "you don't listen anyway". Matthew 7:1-6 by Matthew Henry We must judge ourselves, and judge of our own acts, but not make our word a law to everybody. We must not judge rashly, nor pass judgment upon our brother without any ground. We must not make the worst of people. Here is a just reproof to those who quarrel with their brethren for small faults, while they allow themselves in greater ones. Some sins are as motes, while others are as beams; some as a gnat, others as a camel. Not that there is any sin little; if it be a mote, or splinter, it is in the eye; if a gnat, it is in the throat; both are painful and dangerous, and we cannot be easy or well till they are got out. That which charity teaches us to call but a splinter in our brother's eye, true repentance and godly sorrow will teach us to call a beam in our own. It is as strange that a man can be in a sinful, miserable condition, and not be aware of it, as that a man should have a beam in his eye, and not consider it; but the god of this world blinds their minds. Here is a good rule for reprovers; first reform thyself.
