Its just sooo much easier to cast judgement on someone else than to look at ones self objectively and critique self first, others second. A great many people I think simply cant. Others wont.

Actually, for the most part, I usually am harshest on those how are going in the same bad route I traveled once. I've looked in the mirror, was horrified of what I saw and changed my ways. It hurts to see others I care about taking the same distructive path. And, sometimes, I simply don't want to be a witness to something I can't do anything about.

As for as other people judging me, once in a while they are spot-on and I thank them for pointing those things out. Other times, eh, they're just delusional.
