Sometimes, we tend to find excuses for the things that don't work out for us. We tend to blame others instead of taking responsibility for our actions, which only elevates the excuses. This behavior also applies to standing up for what is right. We often remain silent and wait for someone else to take the initiative instead of holding ourselves accountable. "What's your excuse, now?" is about empowering ourselves to make choices that will help us feel comfortable and confident in our skin.

Good Article About the Way People See Things!
Jon
Stewart is back. The former “Daily Show” host came out of retirement to join
his old colleague, Stephen Colbert, on CBS’ “Late Show.”
He

that you’re this country’s rightful owners. There’s only one problem with that:
This country isn’t yours. You don’t own it. It never was. There is no ‘real
America.’
You
don’t own it. You don’t own patriotism, you don’t own Christianity, you sure as
hell don’t own respect for the bravery and sacrifice of military, police and
firefighters. Trust me.

Jon. When people point out how bad others are, they can’t see their own faults.
Get
well, Dorothy.

Grace and Mercy!
Mercy & Grace
Mercy withholds the knife from the heart of Isaac.
Grace provides a lamb in the thicket.
Genesis 22:11-14
Mercy runs to forgive the prodigal.
Grace throws a party with a robe, a ring, and a fatted calf.
Luke 15:20-24
Mercy hears the cries of the thief on the cross.
Grace promises paradise that very day.
Luke 23:39-43
Mercy converts Paul on the road to Damascus.
Grace calls him to be an apostle.
Acts 9:1-6, 17
Mercy keeps us out of Hell.
Grace takes us to heaven.
Ephesians 2:8-9
And the difference between mercy and grace is this . . .
Mercy withholds from us what we deserve.
Grace gives us what we do not deserve.
Romans 5:20
