There are matters that are too important to ignore or leave to chance. These are salient moments.
Taking into consideration the attitudes and climate in our nation, there are certainly times you might feel like you’re stuck in an elevator with a life insurance salesman, a Mormon missionary and a flasher. It is very difficult to escape without being offended by one of them.
Yet before you fall into a pit of despair or decide to give in to trending thoughts, you might want to consider that there are certainly ongoing principles that need to be honored. Even though it may seem that people break these cardinal rules and get by with it, ultimately, there’s always a reckoning.
There are three words that make the world go ’round: “I was wrong.”
Without “I was wrong” nothing can ever be right.
If you can’t say “I was wrong,” you inevitably resort to lying.
Also, if you’re unable to say “I was wrong,” it leads to an immediate situation: “I am wrong.”
In other words, I continue to be wrong as long as I don’t admit I was wrong.
For most certainly, nothing we ignore ever changes.
Nothing is transformed merely by the passage of time.
Everything must be evaluated, confessed and revised. Otherwise, we cannot separate ourselves from wrong.
I personally don’t mind visiting “wrong” as long as I don’t have to live there. And the only way to keep from dwelling in the condition of being wrong is to admit that you stumble.
Because if you are unwilling to say “I was wrong,” you enter the realm of “I am wrong.” Then the ultimate curse that befalls you is “I will be wrong.”
So no matter what your position is in life, if you’re slow to say “I was wrong,” by the law of nature, you will continue to be MORE wrong as time passes.
You can object. You can try to disguise your iniquity, but your foolishness will be exposed.
So here is your salient moment: “I was wrong” is the only way to ever become right.
