I observe the issue of judgements and how everyone has a slightly, if not drastically, different take on what's good and what's bad. We are used to it, that is how we, as humans, have been brought up. I have swayed myself from using judgements and boundaries of good and bad. And, I've noticed that, if everyone does not share the exact same ideas and opinions on good and bad, then how do we really know what is good or bad? Same with religion, and how different religions define what is right and good, and what is bad and wrong. All religions are different, but they all exist for the same purpose- truth and spirituality. We all have one thing in common, and that is freedom of choice, and the yearning of our spirituality and knowing who we are and our purpose in life.
So I see there being no necessity for definitions of good and bad, but the fact that if i come across an experience or interaction in which someone else says or does something that I wouldn't do, I see it as defining me more- showing me what does and doesn't work for me, personally, but that I won't judge or ridicule those who do or say what I wouldn't.
If we accept others and events which are not like us, then we realize more about ourselves. If we ignore or critisize others and events which are not like us, we tend to focus on that too much, and we won't realize as much about ourselves.
