We are all disgusting human beings. Really, when you come right down to it, do you not all have something in your past you are ashamed of or something you wish you would have done differently? Or are you really perfect? Do you really feel so much better than everyone else around you? I don't�
I make mistakes daily and hourly. I make the same mistakes over and over, and one would think that after 40 plus years on this earth I would learn, but no� I am sure those mistakes will continue.
To call someone a disgusting human being seems rather pointless. We are all disgusting, but thank goodness Jesus died on the cross for all those disgusting sins. We are forgiven.
There are days when I am physically tired, exhausted from this whole parenting gig! Would I trade my life? No way! I feel blessed to get to parent these four beautiful children I have. I only am able to do it all by God's grace and His help. Often times, when we are out in public, I may choose the path of least resistance. One of our children has a harder time in BIG public spaces. The noise makes the neurons fire on super power and we often see the "crazies" come out. No, it's not really crazy. It's simply an overwhelming feeling. Have you ever felt like the "to-do" list is pages long and you don't know where to start? Instead of taking one thing at a time and calmly going through the list, you may do a tiny bit of each thing and keep running back and forth like a chicken with it's head cut off. Yes, that is how I could explain the actions of one child in a public setting. I don't expect other people to really understand it. I don't expect sympathy. I don't expect much at all from others. WHAT I HATE is when another individual, whom I do not personally know ONE bit, makes the judgement that this particular blessing of ours needs discipline and is absolutely disgusting. Yes, those are the exact words!
Part of that makes my blood boil and the anger start to flow. Then, I take a deep breath and think. Discipline or LOVE and understanding? What looks to the outsider as needing more discipline is something entirely different for the mother who knows and loves and understands her child. Perhaps I will confront this person, and perhaps I won't. I would ask that we all stop and think before offering a quick and disgusting judgement, for we are really all guilty of being disgusting.
