Let Go of Judging

Hello World,
I've been really happy lately. To be honest, that's pretty odd. I mean, I've been back in school for two weeks. I've been around people I wouldn't choose to be around for two weeks. And school work has taken up most of my time. So why am I grinning from ear to ear everyday?
Instead of trying to figure why I am so out- of- this- world happy, I have been trying to figure out why I have not been happy for so long. While in distance state of thinking, I came across a specific reason of my unhappiness:I use to be judgmental person.
For years, I would judge people, look down on people, and predict the lives of others. It seemed like every time I would judge someone, something bad would happen to me. Or that very one thing I predicted would happen to someone else, would hit me in the face.
Thinking about it now, I was a pretty miserable person. I was so consumed in other people's lives that I didn't even think of mine. I just thought nothing but good things would occur to me, but my life played out in a totally different direction. While other people's lives were sprouting, mine was dwindling. I wasn't getting any happier. I was becoming more depressed and dark. 
At the time, I didn't think I was the person doing this to myself. I always felt that it was someone else in my surroundings causing my misery. It turns out, I was the person doing this to myself all these years.
I'm older now. Okay, maybe just a few months older, but I'm older. I'm doing my best to mature and erase the flaws. Erasing, as in making better. Not the "erasing" associated with forgetting events that did play out in life.I just want to become the best me. For once, I want to focus on myself and the growth in my life. I realize now that I cannot worry about my life, while trying to figure out how Miguel or Kelsey's life is going to play out.
Y'all, focus on yourself. Judging others is just a waste of time. Trust me.I wasted so much time being depressed and making judgements of others. Don't be the old me. Be the better me or the better you. Work hard on making your life better, and nothing but good things will come your way. Believe that!
