Redhead’s Rap-Swimming in ignorance by Sherri Rosen
Recently being around people who don’t do any self reflection and continuously blame others for their bad situation,
it brought me back to myself, many years ago, where I was in that same situation. Making mistake after mistake and
constantly blaming others. No such thing as taking responsibility for my actions or what I call “owning my shi*t.”
It is alarming to me to see people around one another hurting one another like crazy and just keep on doing the same thing
over and over. It’s watching a miserable mess. It’s watching craziness.
It truly was noticeable to me because I realize how far I have come and also how I surround myself with people who have my back,
and have enough self-reflection not to cause myself or others misery. Wow, but when I see people being hurtful to one another
it really causes me great pain.
I know they don’t have a clue about what they are doing. I see it and if I try in some way to speak to them about the hurtfulness it goes
right over their head. ” Yuck!! Let it go Sherri. They are crazy like you were and hopefully someday they will learn.” They aren’t doing it purposely, they are just swimming in ignorance.
If there is no self-reflection in one’s life, there’s no hope for any kind of change. Many families from one generation to another, because
of lack of self reflection, have the same thing happen over and over in each generation. I know in my family, my dad was never their for his wife or his children, and as a result that was passed on to his children. If I hadn’t had a sense of self-reflection and began many years ago working on myself, I would have continued the same pattern.
Life ain’t easy. But to be so full of ignorance that one hurts people over and over again, is so very sad. The people I was with the other day who were so hurtful to one another are my teachers of what not to do in my life, even though they aren’t my friends. And if I get hurt by someone in my life they are also my teacher. Because no one is perfect, no matter how much self reflection you do, but to witness crazy like I saw the other day, no thank you.
My wish for you is not to keep swimming in ignorance.
