We all learn lessons in life. Some stick, some don’t. I have always learned more from rejection and failure than from acceptance and success. Henry Rollins Too many Christians have a commitment of convenience. They’ll stay faithful as long as it’s safe and doesn’t involve risk, rejection, or criticism. Instead of standing alone […]
LIFE flows like a river. No matter what gets in the way, it flows on. It’s something meant to be enjoyed and cherished. But it’s always changing. And we can’t stick too long in the past, because then we lose sight of the beautiful future. (source unknown) In three words I can sum up […]
No amount of regretting can change the past, and no amount of worrying can change the future. Nothing takes you away from dwelling in the past or worrying about the future like living in the present. Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart via Stop Regretting and Worrying — The Light in the Heart

Yes the blaming others piece instead of taking responsibility stood out to me. I grew up in a broken home with an abusive father and blamed my poor decisions on him instead of taking responsibility for myself when I got out on my own.
