Especially, Nana, Judy, Charliss, Mae, Hazel,
Leslie, Carolyn, Bobby, Cindy, Chris, Jean, Vivian and many others I have forgotten to
mention and have moved on. God bless you!
We often look for excuses when things don’t go our way, shifting the blame onto others instead of taking responsibility for our own choices. But excuses only grow stronger the more we feed them. This same pattern shows up when it comes to doing what’s right—we stay silent, waiting for someone else to step forward, rather than holding ourselves accountable. “What’s your excuse now?” is a challenge to stop hiding behind hesitation and a sense of true comfort in our own skin.

Friends?
I took a shortcut today through a
residential community and passed a former co-worker’s home. I noticed a For Sale sign on the front lawn
and men working on the home. She had risen through the ranks and moved to
bigger and better opportunities in DC. We
never became good friends but we have held a few serious conversations at one
time or another. She passed away a few years ago from cancer. She was a wonderful person but some might disagree.
I mentioned this to say that the few
people we do consider friends, we don’t tell them enough how we appreciate
them. I, personally, have that problem. I've always questioned myself why I don’t
let people get close to me. It’s not the hurt that I’m concerned about, we’ve
all been hurt. My concern is the loss of someone in my life that I care about.
It’s draining so I build my walls. When
people care about me, I am reluctant to reciprocate. So, it’s easier to
distance myself. It may be selfish. While I’m avoiding being hurt, I end up hurting
them. Yeah, I’m a piece of work.
So, I move on without any explanations
and accept the blames against me. I’m getting better but tell that to the
others that I have already offended. My sincere apologies.
