The Prinsessies are finally getting the message. Dad says, "Don't waste time with Blame!" they keep repeating to each other. Hopefully if they repeat it to each other enough, they will take the message to heart themselves.
It seems to be a human trait that we need to find explanations for everything that happens. And so it stands to reason that we need to find blame for everything bad that happens. But things don't always happen because someone wills them to, there is not always a guilty party and we don't need to blame people.
There is a place for blame – when a person responsible for something needs to make amends or be prevented from repeating his crime. But most blame is petty and totally unnecessary and harms the blamer more than the person we blame. And that is when blame is a waste of time.
P.S. I really have no recollection of saying "Don't waste time with Blame!" to my girls, but who am I to rain on their parade?

Nou ja, ek het jou die laaste ruk so baie raakgelees, dat ek myself nie kon help om jou te volg nie, en ek is aangenaam verras! Jy het regtig 'n baie nice blog, met baie goedjies waaroor mens kan nadink. Ek sal weer kom kuier.
Welkom en Thanx Bashing!
Ek is bly jy het my agtervolg, selfs al het ek "counter surveillance" toegepas...
It must be the example you set unknowingly. What a nice outlook. Altyd lekker om hier in te loer.
