“Not only is our humanity prone to self-sabotage, but it also exhibits a certain fickleness in our nature. This inconsistency is also to some extent responsible for our willingness to pass the buck. Furthermore, it often makes us appear unstable and insecure in our ways. We can be subject to mood swings, oscillating between humility and arrogance; peacefulness and violence; or between happiness and sadness. This irregularity displayed in our nature is responsible for why we vacillate between actions. It might be in our nature to be good and kind, but we lean towards cruelty and brutality.”

“No more should you fall for that prank that blaming others is the ideal thing to do. Though it might make you feel good to see others blamed instead of you, don’t fall for the illusion that if you accept the truth about yourself others will see through the façade and lower the premium, they put on you. No such thing should ever tempt you to pass blame on to another person again. If you are ever tempted to do that, look for what is gone amiss in your life so that you can put things right.”
