Explain in your own idea the following paradoxes in life:

1. Hurting Yet forgiving

2. Judged Yet understand
3. Shamed Yet compassionate
4. Rejected Yet accepting

1. Hurting yet forgiving, because nobody will feel insufferable as we forgive people who
brought us in pain. Our faith seems to be tied up with forgiveness to deeply understand
what love really is. Love consists forgiveness each and every day not until it was made
habitually. Moral grounds of forgiveness can make people accept the goodness, if hurting
can be considered unintentional. However, if hurting was meant, forgiveness will still be
possible unless wrongdoings of a certain individual is considered as culpable.
2. Judged yet understand, because we are bound to visual judgements and having sudden
perceptions without understanding took us into confusions. The mere fact that we are
expressing particular assumptions to various things, acts, and doings, we are not in the
instance of understanding the situation first, therefore it is common to individuals making a
judgements due to visual visibilities. According to Matthew 7:1, Jesus commanded his
followers to “Judge not,” for as we Christians, we are not acquired nor tolerated to do
judgements for as if ourselves took the qualities of goodness and evil.
3. Shamed yet compassionate, because nature of human existence cannot deny that people
are sometimes shamed. The idea of nature of individual possesses compassion or being
compassionate, drives us to be caring. As a Christian, we believed that compassion expanded
our wisdom as we act justly, having the kind of love with mercy or most commonly known as
merciful love, and having our faith with God and trust all his plans. It is inclined in the
goodness and moral doings that anyone could possess.
4. Rejected yet accepting, because our life has cycle or process of development. In some fields,
it is normal to feel rejected as long as we accept in ourselves that better days are waiting
ahead us. Upon assessing the self, we are always ought to love and simply trust the process
that is happening to us. For Christian related, Jesus already felt being rejected by the people
until the time he spoke to the Father why did he forsaken him. Through this, we can relate
ourselves by accepting the reality that sometimes we will get rejected and this rejection will
make us stronger to accept that there is more or even something better than that. Human
nature of acceptance leads the way into victory and endless love.
