Can we judge by the past? Just because one has did sinful things, will it automatically make him an outcast for the rest of his life?
No, we probably can't.
Who's to say a person will not change? I'm a living prove that people do change sometimes. Everyone makes mistakes and everyone learns.
Suddenly it doesn't seem fair anymore to judge someone based on past experiences and what wrong had they done.
I'd never understood characters who did not want to kill the person they sought revenge against. I'd never understood it when the protagonist doesn't want to kill the antagonist in the show even when it's clear that the antagonist was wrong and he deserved death. Also, I'd definitely never understood why would someone spare a killer, or even forgive sometimes.
Why? Why don't we just kill them off? Why do we give some people second chances to live again?
Well, for all those questions asked above, I think I somehow answered them myself yesterday night.
Time changes everyone after all. Everyone learns, everyone make mistakes. If someone doesn't make any sort of mistakes, then it probably mean that that person is not someone who would try new things. We all learn this way. A second chance for those who would truly change would mean a lot for them. If you would never forgive people, how are you going to expect that people will forgive you for your wrong doings as well? New people we meet shouldn't be judged upon the past, neither should our old friends too, all because of the reason I stated above.
It's better to let go of the past, to move on and live on. Looking back once in a while to see how much you have grown throughout the course of your life. It's better that we don't judge a person based on what others have to say and what they did in the past.
