HANAPIN ANG MABUTI

Romans 2:1

Some of you accuse others of doing wrong. But there is no excuse for what you do. When you judge others, you condemn yourself, because you are guilty of doing the very same things.

It is always easy to look for the bad in others, to focus on their faults and failures. Pag may tiningnan tayong tao, sino ba ang nakikita natin? “Grabe, kitang-kita ko si Taning sa kanya.” It can happen. Puede rin namang siya rin ang nakikita sa atin. Napakamiserable naman na kung may nakakaharap kang sampung tao, yung masama ang hinahanap mo. One of the easiest things to do in life with guaranteed success is to look for faults. Then sometimes your success is so resounding and so glorious that it destroys you.

While it is true that you will always find something wrong in a person, it is also true that there is something good in everybody. Kaya tama yung sinasabi nilang “Love is blind.” Pagka umiibig ka, you choose to be blind to the faults of the one you love. Pag ang mahal mong anak ang nakabasag ng pinggan, “Anak, nasaktan ka ba?” Pag kasambahay ang nakabasag, “Mahal yan. Salary deduction yan.” At kailan natin nalalaman that we have fallen out of love? When you no longer hide from yourself and justify the mistakes of the person. Kayo na mismo ang nagko-condemn.

Kaya para sumaya tayo, hanapin na lang natin ang mabuti sa ating kapwa. At kapag nakita natin yun, dun tayo mag-focus. Yun ang lagi nating tingnan.
