A person is expected to face the consequences of their own actions, yet when the results of their mistakes unfold, they often attempt to shift the burden onto others. Picture a captain steering a ship through restless waters, with the compass in hand to set the right course. When he disregards the map and veers into a storm, the ship begins to founder, threatening to be engulfed by the waves. Instead of taking control and navigating back to calm seas, he seeks someone else to take the helm, hoping to avoid responsibility for the peril he has brought upon the vessel.
Life’s path is scattered with thorns that everyone must inevitably encounter. When one’s foot is pricked, the pain belongs to them alone. Yet some will try to toss the thorn ahead, hoping it will cause another to stumble, as if the sting could be transferred away. But the truth remains—no matter how far one tries to cast the blame, the wound is theirs to heal. The only way forward is to accept and mend what has been harmed by their own missteps.
