While waiting at the airport terminal for her plane to begin boarding, a  woman sat reading a newspaper. Earlier, she had purchased a package of cookies in the airport snack shop to eat after she got on the plane. Out  of the corner of her eye, she noticed that the man sitting next to her was  eating a cookie. She looked down and noticed that her package of cookies  had been opened and the man was eating them. The woman couldn't believe  that the man would have such nerve as to eat her cookies. So that she  wouldn't lose all of her cookies to the man, she slowly reached over, took a cookie, and ate one herself. 

To her amazement, the man continued to eat  more cookies. Getting more and more irritated, the woman removed all but  one cookie from the package and ate them. At that point, the man reached down and took the last cookie. Before eating  it, he broke it in half and left half of the cookie for the woman. This  made the woman so angry, she grabbed the empty package with the half  cookie and crammed it in her purse.  

Then, to her shock, she noticed that there in her purse was her unopened package of cookies.  

Lesson:  Sometimes we judge or condemn others, we end up judging or condemning  ourselves. 

The Bible speaks of this in Luke 6:37: 

"Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. 

"Have  you ever been too quick to pass judgment on another? When we do that, we  put ourselves in a precarious and often embarrassing position. Check out  all the facts, ask questions, listen carefully, and give people the  benefit of the doubt.

I got this story from my friend, Rhea. She forwarded this to me...to our e-group. Honestly, I love receiving mails like this one because it is something that makes my reading worthwhile.

I have been misjudged most of the time. Some people do think that they always have the law at hand and bestow a biased justice...judgment to others without even learning or having at hand the reality. The truth is always lagged behind.

I dedicate this story to all the people who hate me. Maybe, it is just one reason why they hate me... they could not think of any good reason why they hate me so they simply hate me. For a change, please do read this one. It will help you realize that nothing is really going bad... you all are just very doubtful of my real personality...
