Good Thursday morning dear friend, "JUMP The GUN" I'm sure we have all heard that before. You get into a disagreement with your spouse, friend, or child. Instead of waiting for them to explain or finish their side of the story we cut them off and told them they were wrong and you were right, they were the ones who missed the mark, but in fact, it was you and I who were wrong the whole time. The feeling of guilt, embarrassment, and even shame overwhelm us. So what do we try to do, we try to explain it away, and we try to give our wrong an explanation as to why we thought we were right. The correct response my dear friend is to admit we were wrong and to simply ask for forgiveness of our wrong. Not only is this important to do with our partners, but especially with our children, because it shows them that we as parents are not perfect, and we will and do make mistakes. It will teach them that when they make mistakes they will not be afraid to admit their wrong. Dear friend when we are wrong let's be responsible and sincere and just ask for forgiveness without trying to explain it away because trying to explain it away means we are not sincere in our wrongdoing or for being wrong. Have a great day dear friend, take care and GOD bless...
