Do Numbers Matter?

I've realized something that's very important.

Large masses of water, big pieces of rock, and huge trees weigh a lot, do they not? They take up a lot of space. They represent creature as a whole. You can't have a trees without water. You can't have water without air. You can't have rock without sunshine. They all associate with one another. They cannot have one without the other.

People cannot live without one another. As introvert as you may be, you do need to somehow associate with other human beings. It's part of life. At the same time, we all judge. You don't know who will betray you, backstab you, hurt you, or who will crush your spirits.

Part of judging is physical appearance. You walk down the sidewalk, and within seconds, your brain and attitude make assumptions about the other person walking down that same sidewalk. "They're fat." "They're too skinny." "They have a lot of acne." "They walk funny." We can all avoid the fact that we don't WANT to admit that we think these things, but just as any other sin, we do. We judge. We hate. We hurt.

Think about it... What if you made those same judgements to creation? "It's not THAT pretty." "That tree is too tall." "Those clouds look ridiculous." Nobody thinks those things. Nobody hates creation. We all find joy in the sunset, the fresh air, and the water flowing beneath the bridge.

People are creation, too, though. That's the catch. Just like we don't judge the outdoors, we shouldn't judge the people of creation, either. Creation is creation. People are people. Pretty is pretty. People are pretty. Creation is pretty. It's all the same thing.

I get everyone sins and everyone judges. The world has sin. Just remember that everything is creation, just as everything is beautiful.
