RE: Steemitzombies: Good and Bad are human constructs

in #steemitzombies7 years ago (edited)

As conditioned humans we often confuse judgment with sorting.
I think it is our task to sort rather than to judge into good and bad as they are - as you point out conditioned ways of perception.

An easy example would be a luxurious dinner vs. a pile of shit. Neither one is good nor bad, but both have their place in the order of things. It's when we confuse their place that we get tangled up in "good" and "bad" - where all that is needed is properly sorting them into their right place.

Without a pile of shit nothing would grow to eventually become the basis for a luxurious dinner. And without a luxurious dinner... you get the point <3

Everything has its place within the totality of "things"

Sort:  

That’s a nice way to put it.

I think judgement is fine but with a bit of a different connotation, with a recognition that it’s only good or bad because we or others have deemed it so. Sorting may be s good word to describe this.
