Everyone lives in a different world made by them around themselves where they are the Hero. Obviously everyone seeks fame and acceptance by others for their actions. To hear the words “ Look at the person, he's such an ideal person, always doing right by everyone”. Even if he makes mistakes, he believes that it was for the greater cause and everyone will appreciate the good deeds and not look at faults. But all this is a fantasy, we humans can never see that one person is always right. We are constantly looking out for faults in others so that we can feel we are way better than that person since we do not possess that fault.
I always find myself asking “why can’t I accept that I was wrong ?”. I think that people know in their conscious mind that they made a mistake and they should accept it. Only if this was so easy. Instead we are constantly on lookout for reason why we did what we did, to find a reason to explain people how we thought it was the best decision taken at that time, we don’t stop here, we paint a picture where everyone involved is the evil that caused you to such action and we describe it in such a way that what we did was the best anyone in that situation would have done. Even if it turned out to be wrong it was not to be put on them but on everyone else.
Will accepting it make us a bad person? Wouldn’t it be simple if we accept our mistake?. I don't quite know it now but I have taken the first step and accepted that I was wrong and asked for forgiveness from people around me. Maybe this will make me a bad person but all I can do now is look ahead and try to improve myself and do good. If we want forgiveness then first we must acknowledge our fault. Secondly, we should open our hearts to accept the mistakes of others and forgive them for theirs too. It is a two way street.
I don’t know who needs to read this but sometimes random things just pop up at the right time. “ Sometimes it’s not about who’s right or who's wrong, it’s just about letting go & Sometimes it’s about staying and holding on even when things are not the way we want them to be.”
