There have been times I&#8217;ve wanted to give all I have to the homeless, and then there have been times that I wish I hadn&#8217;t seen them at all.<\/p>\n<p>So as a default defense mechanism &#8212; to prevent me from either feeling bad for not giving money or bad for being annoyed that they are asking me for money &#8212; I simply press &#8220;ignore&#8221; in my mind to pretend that they are not there at all.<\/p>\n<p>How many times in life have we done this &#8212; press the &#8220;ignore&#8221; button on the people and things around us? Maybe we &#8220;ignore&#8221; the cashier at the grocery store by simply standing silent in line as they ring our items, then handing over an AmEx card, signing our receipt and going our merry way without so much as a &#8220;hello&#8221; or a &#8220;thank you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Or perhaps we rub shoulders with someone on the street and don&#8217;t bother to stop, look them in the eye and say &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry!&#8221; Instead we quickly mumble &#8220;sorry&#8221; as we pass them in our hurried ways.<\/p>\n<p>Pressing &#8220;ignore&#8221; is a natural habit that takes a higher consciousness to break. And part of the pressing &#8220;play&#8221; button means not passing judgment on those around you, either.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, I was walking to a Salvation Army to film an episode of Sammy Davis Vintage TV. I was all dolled up in heels, fishnets, a floral dress and lace shawl. My hair and makeup was done. Even though the sidewalk was crowded, I definitely stood out.<\/p>\n<p>On 23rd Street headed west, I passed a man who said something to me that I couldn&#8217;t quite make out.<\/p>\n<p>He was standing in the middle of the sidewalk in gray, drab clothes. He was slightly hunched and had a cane in his hand. My passing glance wrote him off as a disheveled bum who was most likely mumbling something to me like, &#8220;Could you spare some change, miss?&#8221; or also likely, a compliment about my outfit that would leave me uncomfortable and perhaps unresponsive, like &#8220;Well aren&#8217;t you looking good today Cover Girl.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Both of those judgments and &#8220;imagined&#8221; scenarios passed through my mind as I rushed past this man to get where I needed to be &#8212; on my own time and on my own terms.<\/p>\n<p>But while those assumptions were ringing in my mind, in that moment I was able to push them to the side and pause. A pause of literally one second &#8212; and that&#8217;s all it took &#8212; to recognize that this man was not just a BODY, but a real, whole living and breathing soul of a being <strong>who deserved my attention right then.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So, instead of ignoring the man, I ignored my assumptions. I listened harder to what he was saying. And then I turned around, realizing that I wasn&#8217;t looking at a homeless man or a obnoxious cat-caller at all.<\/p>\n<p>I was looking at an<strong> elderly blind man.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I asked, &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry sir, what did you say?&#8221; And without looking in my direction, but still pointing his cane to find his way on the crowded NYC street, he replied, &#8220;I&#8217;m looking for the dollar store &#8230; is it up ahead?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I looked ahead, and about 50 yards to his left was a lonely looking $.99 store.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure how he got to that place on the street or how long it took him to get there. He may have been dropped off by a cab who didn&#8217;t bother to help him to the store. He could have stood there with his cane mumbling to passerby for minutes, who like I almost did completely, pressed &#8220;ignore&#8221; and pretended that he wasn&#8217;t there by passing judgment that he was just another homeless man looking for some change and not <strong>someone who truly needed assistance.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because I chose to PUSH judgment out of my mind, I was able to let the TRUTH enter. The truth was that he just needed someone to walk him into the dollar store. That&#8217;s it &#8212; literally one minute out of my day.<\/p>\n<p>But that one minute meant the world to him &#8212; and to ME! That is the true beauty of not passing judgment: we are giving back to ourselves because we are giving the entire truth of what <strong>truly is reality<\/strong> to ourselves in that moment.<\/p>\n<p>So today, as you walk by people, things and places &#8212; or encounter various situations both new &amp; old &#8212; consciously decide to PUSH away your imagined, pre-conceived notions and judgmental assumptions. Yes, they will still enter your mind! But <strong>you have the choice<\/strong> whether or not you want to hear them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>And when you stop LISTENING to them, you&#8217;ll SEE what the true reality is. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>xx, SD<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HOW_TO_ENTER_GRATEFULNESS_GIVEAWAY_1\"><\/span>HOW TO ENTER
