Quiroga - 120

 JUSTIFYING ERRORS

Despite consciously rejecting the idea that there is grudge or resentment in our souls, we nevertheless allow the survival of some resentment at any time, because we silently and intimately dwell on it and justify it with arguments that would not withstand an objective analysis, but at this point, who cares about objectivity?

We, humans, are much less rational than we pretend, most of the time we are in a state of passion, anger prevails that we would blame in others, but that we allow to survive within us, disguised as resentment, so that it appears to be the right reaction to something wrong they did to us.

And it cannot be ruled out that they do wrong things against us, just as it cannot be ruled out that we do wrong things against other people, and we all, some and others, argue justifying that, in their case, or in our own case, the action is justified, and so we destroy each other instead of serving each other wisely.

And all of this lasts as long as we do not dedicate ourselves with the same commitment and energy with which we throw ourselves into discord to what is most important for any human being at this moment in history, the transition from individual, self-centered and selfish consciousness to group consciousness, broad and inclusive.
