    JUDGE NOT

     When you're busy blaming others
    Looking for a fault or two,
    Then it's time we started counting
    All the pretty things we do.

    There's a lot of good in others
    Maybe a lot of bad in me,
    So, I have no right in judging
    Faults of others that I see.

    Before we look for failings
    I have a better plan,
    And that is to keep my own house cleaner
    Before I judge another man.

    I love this. I write a lot on this topic because many people forget that none of us are perfect. It's important to take a look in the mirror before pointing that finger at the next man. Very well done!
