Excuses are ruses.
Completely excuse your neighbor; occasionally pardon yourself.
“They did the best they could” is highly useful to those with a firm commitment to complete denial.
Regret nothing; what has happened has made you the way you aren’t.
Live with your regretatives; die with your appreciatives.
It is said that there is a purpose behind everything; it sucks when that purpose is selfishness.
Tough is facing reality; hardcore is taking responsibility for it.
Excusal is refusal.
Hug-pat every choice; smack-kiss every inner voice.
Own what’s blown; hone what’s completely thrown.
We excuse in ourselves the very same fault we condemn in our neighbor.
