Don’t Rush to Judge People and Circumstances

Life Lesson Four Do some mile-walking first Similar to previous lessons but entirely different, is what to do when it comes time to judge people, and circumstances when making decisions. No one should go around being judgemental, but there are times when it’s necessary in order to size up things and make choices. Usually, three……
