When you point a finger at someone, three fingers point back at you.

The old saying goes, "When you point a finger at someone, three fingers point back at you." This is especially true when it comes to judging others; the harsher you judge others, the harsher you judge yourself. Often, people who judge others are projecting their own insecurities and shortcomings onto others, to deflect attention from their own flaws. When we judge others, it can also reflect our own lack of self-acceptance and self-love. In contrast, those who are more accepting and compassionate towards others typically have a healthier and more positive self-image. Treating others with kindness and understanding can not only improve our relationships with others, but also help us grow as individuals by fostering our own self-love and acceptance.
