Blaming
All
blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with
another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change
you.-Wayne Dyer
I will watch my tendency to blame
Sometimes
when something feels like it's wrong with me, I want to blame someone
else for how it got that way. I want to make sense of it, get the pieces
to hang together or create some sort of story that makes someone else
the culprit so that I'll feel less baffled and alone in my pain. But
blame is a never-ending cycle that becomes preoccupying and actually
sends my energy outward. If I could accept with some level of simplicity
that this is just where I am, perhaps I could marshal my own inner
resources to get better or make small, positive changes. When I blame I
get into a habit of mind that just isn't self-nourishing. I feed myself
with resentment rather than encouragement. I drain my strength and throw
it outward just at that moment when I need it to sustain me on the
inside.
