Own up to the responsibility

Hello everyone
July came in, the summer got more intense 
and many more opportunities are coming in 

a story i would love to share with you dear readers, its an interesting way 
how the events fell into place

it started a couple of weeks ago, as a friend of mine was calling out
as he wanted me to help him with something 
it was a serious matter 

it was a mistake and as a result help was needed
after sorting things out and after things were sorted out

my friend seemed as if it did not bother him 
next thing was that he done some other mistake 
but it wasn't as serious as the first one

and after the second incident 
there had to be some sort of intervention 
or some way to tell this person (my friend) was that he is going on a roll down 

so recently there was a conversation going on between me and him
Yes i admit it was harsh (because it came out as judgment) 

SIDE LESSON : try to always convey the message more openly as people
may misinterpret it as in my case 
the person thought it was a harsh judgment passed on him 

but if it was not judgment passed by a friend it could be more worse
it would have been a judgment passed by people
and that sort of judgment could have been worse !

to continue along with the story, the main moral of it
was that the owner of the problems
did not seem to have grasped to concept of owning up the problems that he caused

as an attempt from him to try and explain how it is on his side
he tried to do an emotional blackmail 
and tried to play the guilt card 

saying that he already feels guilty enough deep inside him

IMPORTANT NOTE

of course you will feel guilty, because that is your conscious speaking 
it is the moving motive in what will make you grasp the fact
that you made a mistake 

and it will only go once you start making things right 

so that blame feeling is nothing but a way your mind
and heart speaking to you to make the right thing !

The lessons from our story
 (for those who would like to just skip to this part)

you make a mistake 
you feel the blame 
you own up to your mistake and take responsibility to it

yes your friend will judge you 
but would you rather listen to your friends judge you

or listen to a complete stranger slandering you?

  1. I'd honestly prefer the honesty. Having my friends tell me what they're feeling is important...because it shows you care enough to do something about it. I suppose some people expect, despite having troubles, to join them in their pain...rather than resolve.

    Thus, I agree...better to have been told by a friend, than slandered across who knows what by strangers.
