I can tell you why. You are waiting for them to fix it. So, you sit there, waiting. Waiting for someone, someone that you are not even happy with right now, by the way, to make things better for you.

And you wait. Waiting. Waiting.

The seasons change as you look out the window, and the caption reads:“ Waiting for my wrongdoer to come fix things.” Sadly, you may be waiting forever for them to right this wrong. You sit there, holding yourself stuck with reasons like,“ It’ s not my fault, so there’ s nothing for me to do. They did this so they must be the one to fix it.”

While that kind of thinking is completely normal and understandable within the Demand Relationship™ mindset we’ ve all been brought up under, let me ask you these two questions:

Question 1: How has that been working for you?

Question 2: How long do you want to keep waiting?

Ultimately, you are taking your destiny, happiness, and peace and giving it to someone else to handle for you. Maybe they do something to make things better and maybe they don’ t. Now you’ re at the whim of another person. Tell me, what are the chances that they are going to somehow right this wrong for you?

This is how stealthy and deceptive blame is. Blame is an invisible force of destruction. Let me explain by making it visible for you now.

Principle: Blame is the act of taking all your power to solve something for yourself and willingly handing it over to someone else in the hope they might choose to fix it for you.
