Maybe I'm the only one here that sometimes (often?) points the finger of blame to others, rather than pointing it at myself...nonetheless, I thought I'd share this with you..it really hit home!
Look not to the faults of others,
nor to their omissions and commissions.
But rather look to your own acts,
to what you have done and left undone.

Try the quote below. It really hits my home!
Look at the faults of others, and their omissions and commissions. In addition, look to your own acts, to what you have done and left undone
I agree. I think people do need to look at themselves in any situation and make sure it's not them vs the other person. People are too quick to blame others for many reasons but rarely admit fault. Novel idea, eh? LOL

I absolutely agree. Whenever I'm in a situation, I look deep within myself to see if I had a hand in it also.
Also looking at my past relationships, I would have to say that I shared equal blame for what went wrong with them. At the time, of course, it was their fault never mine.
this is E + R = O Events + Response = Outcome People should realize an event in and of itself is nothing more than an event. It's our reactions to events that determins an outcome. How you perceive anything is how it will be.
Virtually any flaw that I see in others, I think could be a flaw of my own in one of two ways: 1) I am projecting my own flaw onto the other person, or 2) Their flaw is real, but if I had been raised differently, or had radically different experiences in my life, I could have been like them.
I don't see myself, or anyone else, as inherently better than others. We all grow from a common Source.
