Excuses.

Nobody is perfect. Human beings are never perfect. Perfect to me, is marely a technicality and should not be used in reality. There are a thousand and one reasons why things don't go the way we plan them. There are a million reasons why somethings are the way they are.
We know how to give excuses to justify our actions in life. Man unarguably has a natural tendency to Lie to himself when trying to give reasons to justify most of his actions. The fear to take responsibility of every action we take in life gives us the urge to provide a form of shield in our excuses.
We convince our mind and that of people around us with reasons why a certain thing happened. When people don't meet up with schedules, they bring up an excuse. When people are rebuked of wrong doings, they find an excuse. There must be an excape route to justify our action. Everyone gives reasonable and unreasonable excuses intervally as long as they appear as justified as possible.
An uncle of mine told us frequently when we were much younger that the worst form of deceit was self deceit. He encouraged we took responsibility of our actions. He wanted us to have the mindset that we were responsible for our actions and learn to stop blaming other things Or people for our misdoings. He preached, Learn to stop giving Excuses....
In as much as we feel more comfortable with giving excuses which is easier, we should learn to be strong enough to take responsibilities. Excuse are like the virus to continually fest on your phone till it finally crashes.
