I often wonder why we give everyone else a hard time when they make mistakes of falter. After all, we are constantly evolving and changing. As life progresses so do we. Sometimes we transgress and that is okay too. Life is but a bunch of hills, sometimes we go up, sometimes we go down. There's always another level of terrain off in the distance to deal with too.
I wish that we would accept others as we accept ourselves. We are most critical of ourselves but we are also more accepting of ourselves when we make mistakes. We are quicker to forgive ourselves as well. But why, do we hold on to resentment towards others so much more? One should really think about this as it pertains to them individually.
No one on this earth is exempt from falling. What we can do is understand the difference between ideals and reality. The difference between good change and bad change. The evolution of our lives does not end except in death. (we think!) So we never reach that ideal of perfection that we created in our minds. What we can do is find security in the fact that we are always in a stage of betterment and improvement. Our development is relative to our beliefs. We believe, we become.
.
Truth be Told: We are no better than the people we criticize. We all evolve and change with the times, with the people in our lives and the experiences we encounter. It helps to realize that others are fighting the cycles too. It's the process of life.
