My Brother's Keeper ?

If someone is a danger to another the decision for intervention is clear cut. But if the person makes life choices that undermine their own life how do we justify judgement? My brother smoked, ate unhealthy food and was lax in his health care. If I had treated him like Rapunzel he might be here today but he probably would not be speaking to me and rightly so. I have been on the receiving and giving end of judgements and no good comes from either position. The toughest part is to accept that I have and deserve no power in this situation.
Working through the process.......
and still Blogging On!
