POINTING YOUR FINGER

By Vernalee

Are you pointing your finger again? "It's always somebody else's fault." I know that you have heard that quote before! It's so easy to see other folks' faults and mistakes. Strangely, you never see yours! Don't sweat it! When you point your finger at someone, three fingers are pointing back at you! Statistically, the three fingers pointing at you outnumber your one finger pointing to someone else! Bingo! Maybe, that should be a clue! Finger pointing usually occurs when one is judging, or "pointing" out others' mistakes. Some folks just can't wait to "point" out the negatives! Never once have they offer assistance to help the person make the wrong - right! It's not fair to be so critical/judgmental of others without examining yourself. Agreed? My Momma "checked" me years ago. She said, "You betta stop pointing your finger and judging other folks. Who told you that your hands were completely clean?" C'mon now! If you can point, you can help! Helping hands are always better than pointing fingers!
