To Blame is to Game

February 2, Looking back, I realize just how much of my life has been spent in dwelling upon the faults of others.  It provided much self- satisfaction, to be sure, but I see now just how subtle and actually perverse the process became.  After all was said and done, the net effect of dwelling on the so-called faults of others was self-granted permission to remain comfortably unaware of my own defects. 

Do I still point my finger at others and thus self-deceptively overlook my own shortcomings?

Today I Pray - May I see that my preoccupation with the faults of others is really a smokescreen to keep me from taking a hard look at my own, as well as a way to bolster my own failing ego.  May I check out the "why's" of my blaming.

Today I Will Remember - Blame saying is game playing
