Journal #6

I can guarantee that everyone in the whole wide world has been blamed for something they have not done.  In the cases I have been blamed, it has been because of my siblings.  Siblings think it is fun to turn the blame on someone else.  I have to admit it takes a load off when you are not being the one that is being punished.  But whenever you do something wrong, there are always repercussions.  If you did not know, repercussions means consequences.  My parents always say, "For every action you do, there will be consequences."  Some of the possible repercussions that could be drawn upon you for blaming someone else would be going to jail, getting grounded, getting sent to your room, etc.  If you robbed a bank and when the police questioned you, you pointed a finger at someone else, you could be sent to jail.  The worst thing though that could come from that would be the guilt.  Feeling guilty is the worst feeling ever, I think.  Can you imagine doing this action I stated above and sending an innocent person to jail?  I know I would be feeling so dragged down with guilt because that person who will be in jail could be a husband and a father.  He would be leaving his family because of some idiot who was to busy thinking about himself.  Another thing that would be terrible to live with is if you blamed one of your friends or even a best friend on something bad that you did and losing their trust.  I would feel horrible if I lost a friend or best friend as a result of one of my actions.  Losing a friend puts me down in the dumps and even thinking about this happening makes me frown.  I love all my friends and I am blessed to have them.  Writing this blog has made me think about not blaming things on other people.
