accidentally

acidents do occur, they occur all the time.

in the market, in school, at home, in ur own head. accidents happen, they remain to be unforeseen. this (natural) occurence of accidents; can they be predicted? who should be blamed for an accident? and why? these are some issues i'd like to address in my post.

Imagine this scenario-
u walk down the street, u see an old lady, and u offer to help her carry her stuff. ur doing a good thing. but then the bag slips off, and it drops to the floor, shattering the glass object inside her bag. that, is an accident.

how would u feel if u were carrying an old lady's bag but it slipped off?
-i would feel sorry.

yeah of course u wld feel sorry. now question- sorry for who? for her? for u?

for her, like duh! ur sorry for a mistake u made.. now, that grandma scolds u for breaking her vase and walks off.


how would u feel. u tried to help someone, but end up harming the person instead. how? accidents do happen.

like the tablet, im sure no one wanted it to drop at that time. but the fact is: accidents do happen. tablets do drop, people do bang into each other, shirts do get washed wrongly. who's to blame? everyone was just trying to do a good deed; carryin a tablet for someone, walking off somewhere, washing a shirt for u. but ended up wrongly.

no one's to blame. the blame could shift endlessly. I dropped ur tablet yes, but u let me hold it in the first place. i knocked into u yes, but u were walking in my direction. why couldnt u have moved away? i stained ur shirt yes. but u let her have the shirt in the first place.

blames shift.
forgive, and forget. although forgetting is hard, forgiving should be the case.


what am i? just another face in the crowd? for u to play with, play finish then say "very pain. i dun wan already." when u dont even know? its the same logic as saying- i'll fall down now so that i wun have the chance to fall down later. its the same thing- i'll falling down now so that i wun have to run the race, so that i wont have any chance of faling down.

i'm breakin up now so that next time there wont be a chance to break up? isnt that abit off point? if u dun run the race, u wun know if ur going to fall down or not. by falling down in the start, u could have destroyed ur one and only record. by falling down at the start, u would have FORCED the thing to happen, when it need not happen. by falling down at the start, u deprived urself of the chance to win a gold medal.

if u will fall during the race, know that at least u tried. if u fell before the race, u didnt try a single bit. relate this to our current situation.

goodnight, this is my blog, dusty and old.
