No Blame

One of the things I love about the Book of Changes ( I Ching) is the reaffirmation
of No Blame after describing the events and how to best relate to them.

On that subject, Deepak Chopra said, " When you become defensive, blame others,
and do not accept and surrender to the moment, your life meets resistance. Any time
you encounter resistance, recognize that if you force the situation, the resistance will only
increase. You don't want to stand rigid like a tall oak that cracks and collapses in the storm.
Instead, you want to be flexible, like a reed that bends with the storm and survives.....

.......If you observe people around you, you'll see that they spend ninety-nine percent of their time
defending their points of view."
