A FAULT CONFESSED IS HALF REDRESSED
A FAULT CONFESSED IS HALF REDRESSED
A human being is neither an animal nor an angel, but a creature that holds a place between them. The animals lack the power to think properly and to differentiate between good and bad. But, being a rational animal, man holds a higher place because he can make use of his reasoning power to decide how certain things are to be done. On the other hand, man is not as perfect as an angel. We do commit mistakes and no one is absolutely perfect. However, using our wisdom we can surely correct the mistakes and get closer to the perfection seen in angels. In other words, when the animal nature in man makes him or her to do something wrong, the angelic quality comes forth for rescue. The readiness to admit the mistakes or confess the fault is something unique to human nature. Admitting a mistake is never a sign of weakness, but that of power. If we don’t care to admit a fault, it only means that we are not prepared or willing to correct it. Moreover, it does a great deal in providing us peace of mind and happiness.
