No-fault

“You’re not the cause; you’re the recipient.”

I was gifted this piece of wisdom last week. It’s a helpful perspective when facing a challenge that’s fallen into our laps.

We can indeed make problems of our own — earning some stiff consequences — but it’s a relief to recognize no-fault situations.

We often still have the responsibility of addressing the problem, but we can navigate it without the burden of guilt, shame, and regret.

New perspective and a fresh attitude can make all the difference.
