Who hasn't been traveling to some destination to accomplish one of life's many obligations and noticed an unanticipated interaction between two or more parties? Given greater attention you notice that the parties are not only shocked but frustrated and overwhelmed with the new set of obligations. How do you decide who is at fault when it is clear both people have had a communication error. Sure, it is possible that one party may be more responsible than another but who says that you know best what causes this communication break down?
What do you focus on? What have you decided would increase the culpability of one party and decrease the culpability of the other? Is that the standard that you would want to be judged based by?
For all intents and purposes, the set you have for judging others determines how you will interact with people on a general basis. This also provides insight to whether you take the stance of a victim or the one that overcomes the obstacles placed before you.
If you are willing to forget your pride long enough to look at the raw worth of your actions and how others perceive you, then maybe you can see what you need to improve; open yourself up to constructive criticism and become a successful member of the World that needs your help.
Anybody can see that this World is in an overall decline, especially socially. What the people do about it is what matters most. What are you going to do about it? Are you going to be prideful and decide that what you have made of yourself is good enough or are you going to allow people who care and sacrifice for the sake of future generations to help you learn the best ways to sacrifice together? What is pride when you are gone and your descendants are lost in the struggle? Pull that heart out and show effort that you care. Words are beautiful, especially when those words are married to meaningful actions.
