Judging, Rating, Evaluating, Categorizing

I don't believe that we can live without judging. Without evaluating, without rating, without categorizing the world. How should we be able to have a will? When we can't separate the one thing from the other.
Because isn't that what all those things do? Those judgements. They help our brain to see the difference between the thing judged and the rest of this existante. How should we be able to cognitively understand the world if there were no contrasts?

So I say we need it.

And yet, I still feel like right and wrong is wrong. It doesn't make logic sense but that's how it feels. That right and wrong is wrong.

I don't know if it explains it for you, too, but I can say I've found an answer, I've found something that it is true for me.
I'll tell you:

So, what if rating is necessary, only our rating system is not true. I don't say wrong. I say not true. What if we evaluated our world in categories not of good and bad but of
- LOVE and FEAR
- HARMONY and DISHARMONY
- TRUTH and ILLUSION

Then even the the sentence "right and wrong is wrong" is possible when I change it and say: "right and wrong is an illusion . It is not true." That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, it's just not true.
Which brings up the question about what is truth but I don't want to go into that here. Same with what is harmony, what is love, what is illusion, disharmony and fear. We all have to find out for ourselves what lies beyond those words for us.

So far I've found those 3 evaluating categories. I'm sure that there are more. Can you think of others? Please share what you think! And some don't only have 2 poles, some might have 3 or 7 or 137..?. Having said the above, I want to add that still things can have more than one characteristic. Things can be something and the opposite at the same time. When we think in those categories we must still remember that nothing is so simple that we can grasp the wholeness of it when we start to describe it. Every single thing, every situation, every incident, every being is way too complex that anyone could ever describe it.
