RandomThoughts 4th Anniversary: Could It Survive?

Finding faults is everyone's business in any occasion. Look what is happening in our country recently. I don't need to cite them here one by one.

As I check my posts here since I started writing and posting them, I found out that the first post I made was in February 3, 2011 and the title was "Finding Faults". I have nothing in mind to write but the natural tendency of everyone, that's, finding faults. It's too easy looking for failure of anyone else than our own.

Why this is so! I have my own reason to cite. I have my own staunch to defend. I have my own opinion to share. And I know you've your own too to claim, or whatever.

Why We Are Here?

Never mind about that. Here's a question to answer: Have you made someone happy today? If not, you've failed indeed. This reminds me of some lines from the Church hymn, "Have I Done Any Good in the World Today" which we use to sing in every meeting we've had in our Church, activities, and conferences.

Finding faults!

Why is it that it is easy to find faults with others?

I admit that even myself I keep on finding weaknesses with my friends, with my job associates, or even with my own family members. And I'm adamant to accept that I've inadequacies too. I would rather justify my incapacity to do things when I fail. But I know for that kind of attitude of finding others' faults our Lord God is not well pleased for this.

Why this is so?

I remember in one of our management meetings with my fellow educators a resource person raised a piece of a clean white sheet of paper with a small black dot at the center for everyone to see. Then he asked a question if what we had seen. Without hesitation, we unanimously answered that there was a black dot at the center of the said paper he lifted up. He chuckled and then raised his voice saying: "Why that is so?"
