being judgmental.

“ Judgmental is not stating an opinion or even labelling something as good or bad. Being judgmental is when based on one quality of someone or something you conclude about his whole nature, about all his other qualities. You judge his wholeness based on one aspect ”

Wow. This is such a serious thing to debate on, even within our own ego. Honestly i myself even being judgmental over many things, ruling out over a single bulletproof point. Well, the thing is it’s still okay if you keep it up to yourself, as when you spit out, it can lead to discrimination. We tend to miss out ourselves from the word ‘ judgmental’ but when someone else pop into action of being judgmental, we tend to mock their action. Of all these few days, i’ve been watching House dramas, and 2 episodes kick off my encephalon. When you’ve been on superior side, it’s hard to place your seat back on inferior’s. But somehow in matter of time, the sanity would twist you once the reality punches you down.

Homeless, was the first concept i saw in ‘House’ season 1 when a doctor, trying to rule out his new admitted patient, detested the patient just because she was homeless. The doctor even refused to talk to the patient nicely and looked into her smelly bags, and making his diagnosis based on one criteria-homeless, that the patient faking her illness for a roof to sleep. The real thing was she having rabies. Well, it would surely save the hospital some money but isn’t it a soul that should be taken care of first? I would prefer Dr House’s attic despite of he totally a BIG JERK as what he matter most were the lives, not the principles on books even he didn’t like people. As Dr Cameroon said to Dr House “ You’re abrasive and rude, but i figured everything you do, you do it to help people. But i was wrong, you do it because it’s RIGHT ” . Ok though the they are only fiction-people but at least they reflect something to take as lesson. And most of the time, the big-worth life learning is not in the textbooks.




The second incident in the dramas involved Dr Chase, well i liked him as i thought he was that good-guy until in episode ‘Heavy’. He got allergy thingy with heavyset people aka obese people. There was a girl, being admitted d/t heart attack and he bluntly blamed it into her weight-morbid obesity saying that what the girl really need was getting out of the couch. And here a snide remark of Dr Cameroon to Dr Chase “ Everything in society tells us we have to be thin to be successful ”. And here the ‘great’ philosophy from Dr Chase “ Society tells you, you have to be thin to be attractive. And guess what, that’s what attractive means: society likes looking at you ”. OMG. Dr Chase, you’re just a cranky so 10 years old boy. Does an obese person not deserve a meaningful life? What if that they eat normal portion of food, exercise like yours but they still overweight? And that happened in this case as that young girl actually was suffering from Cushing’s syndrome which lead her to moon face, and central obesity and here to mention that obesity wasn’t self-induced. I wouldn’t say that being over fat is good which totally is absurd, but instead of making fun, provoking people of their appearance, isn’t it better to give them moral support?


People, do get outside with your good inside. And i’m advising myself here.
