We often experience difficulties in climbing out beyond our comfort zones in order to possess the ability to recognize our own flaws, and the injustice we cause ourselves and others.
It isn't easy for us to look within and admit that there are certain parts about us that need to be amended or changed.
Why? Because it brings about an internal unrest.
Many of us have become experts in suppressing our emotions and unpleasant thoughts about ourselves, while we search for flaws in others.
Often times we'll easily find the imperfections in those around us, and with the discovery an immediate pleasant feeling will awaken.
The irony, is that what we end up finding wrong in others, invariably lays in us.
By pointing our finger towards another, we produce a false sense of superiority within: "I'm dealing with 'damaged goods' ...it can't possibly be me ... I'm much better than that ... "
Isn't it about time we began being more truthful?
Won't that bring us closer to our true selves?
