Live and Let Live

To live and let live.

This is a way of saying that we should let people alone. Not to be a judge of someone. They are people too. Not to say, or do anything to control them. Know the facts before making any kind of judgment,

I think that this statement is very true. We never know what makes someone the way they are. For a long time when I was younger. I would make an opinion of someone before I ever really knew them. This was usually a mistake, or at least partially so. Now I know that I can't think anything until I understand someone better. If I'm not ever going to find out about someone first, then I don't have an opinion. Everyone lives in different environments and that reflects how they appear, but not who they are.

Just for fun, here's another one.

The grass is never greener on the other side of the fence.

This is in regards to change is not good. The Fence is an obstacle that must be crossed, and when it is, it might be harder to get back. Another way is to say, That job that looks so good, might not be what it sounds like.

This is a hard one, but I can make it work. If you want to change something, then know what the results of the change will be. Don't just do something and live with whatever happens. The approach would be to do as I am in class now: doing a research paper on a career. I had thought that I knew what I wanted to do, but found out otherwise.
