Deadly Judgments


It's so easy to pass on judgments to others, but it is so difficult to see the goodness that these people are truly capable of. I just had an epiphany a few days ago about passing judgments on people, and I have realized how they can be downright deadly.

I see people every day, and I cannot help but be judgmental about them. If they wear this kind of clothes, talk a certain way, or even act in a curious manner, I easily judge them negatively. Moreover, if someone has committed a heinous error, the more I judge that person as an evil guy. However, after a series of mental and spiritual crunching and gymnastics, I soon realized that this is not the right path. The right path which I learned to take is to always look onto others with a look of love. If I look with the eyes of love, I know that I can be patient, kind, courageous, and sympathetic towards that person no matter how evil he/she is.


A wise professor of mine once said that our errors are only but 1 percent of our entire being; we are more than capable of being good because we are created good. So the next time I see people who have done wrong to me or to others, I have to keep a mental note that his sin is not as deadly or as poisonous as my negative judgment on him/her because I do not only strike out his 1 percent but the 100% of his being. Just like what a great man did say, let those who have not committed any sin cast the first stone.

5 Reasons why you should be a Bosconian

Imahe
If you are looking for something different and unique, I think Don Bosco- Canlubang is the right place for you. I do not want to talk anymore about the quality of education that this school has or the great facilities that it already possesses. What I really want to talk about is the character which I think that this school alone has. Let me give you 5 reasons why a young person like you should be a Bosconian. 1. Bosconians are God-Centered. What is the point of having all the knowledge in the world if we Bosconians do not have God in our life. Bosconians are Men and Women who love God and love everything about God. For a Bosconian, God is not someone high up in the air who can't be reached. Rather, God is someone who accompanies us every day in our victories and struggles. For us, it is cool to be friends with Jesus. 2. Bosconians are Socially Responsible. Bosconians do not live in a cloud, but we are rooted to the ground and are vigilant to w...

You Know You're in Don Bosco When...

A Bosconian will always think of Don Bosco (I am referring to the school, Parish, or Youth Center) as a home. It is our one and true home as a Bosconian. And whether you are a Bosconian from a certain Don Bosco setting and you chanced to visit a different one, you cannot but still feel a sense of kinship. This is an experience of mine in my trips to different Don Bosco settings. I began to wonder why there is always a sense of affinity as I go from one Don Bosco setting to the other. After much careful musings, I think I was able to realize why. Different Don Bosco settings share similar characteristics and it is so effective in forming young people to be good Christians and honest citizens. So my dear friends, you know you're in Don Bosco when… 1. There is a big and open space The reason behind the big and open space is for Bosconians to be able to run, jump, shout, and make noise. Bosconians need a big space so that they can enjoy themselves and enjoy the company o...

A Complete Bosconian's Guide for a New School Year

Imahe
The summer season is almost over, and the time has come again to prepare ourselves for the upcoming school year. The previous school years have a lot of things to teach us as students. Now is the time for us once again to start fresh and be a better version of ourselves. Let me give you 5 simple tips to better prepare yourself for the coming school year. 1. Organize your things First and foremost, it is our duty as Bosconians to be the ones accountable for our own things. Although we have our parents to prepare for our stuff, it is not their duty but ours. We should be the ones viewing our checklist of school materials whether we have completed it or not. It is but time that we take some responsibility for ourselves. 2. Mentally prepare yourself Aside from preparing ourselves physically, you have to set your mind that the summer season is almost over. We must avoid a gloomy face because summer is ending. Rather, we must put on a smiling countenance and be optimistic for ...
