If we’re determined to judge people, we need to do so the way we want to be judged. Oh! Here’s a thought: None of us want to be judged. We want to be accepted for who we are. We should return the favor!

Except if it’s a bunch of blokes standing around a car looking in … I’ve often been tempted to go up to them and say, “It’s an engine! ” … but that would hurt their poor feelings about the matter. 😀
