Clean Up Your Own Mess!

"Clean up on aisle 6"! There are a number of places where others have to clean up a mess they did not make. Even in life, people live in such opposing ways to God, that somebody else has to "clean up the mess they made". At what point, do we stop cleaning up the mess and hold the person who made it responsible? It's time for people to clean up their own messes and to stop messing up the lives of others with their selfishness and inability to think beyond the moment. In a millisecond of anger, blood rushes to the brain and clouds ones ability to think clearly, if a person is not used to thinking clearly and rationally on a daily basis.  People commit suicide because they cannot think beyond the moment.  Children are abused, neglected, and abandoned because their parents cannot think beyond the moment.  This inability to think beyond the moment, usually leads to a disaster of some sort.  When disaster hits--someone is left with a mess to clean up.  It's time for those who make a mess of out their lives and the lives of unsuspecting children to clean up their own messes.  For the rest of us who have ended up cleaning up messes after people, it's time for us to leave the mess for the ones who made it to clean it up.

We have cleaned up after small children when they couldn't do it for themselves, but as they grew, so did our response to them in teaching them how to clean up their mess.  Now it's time to let it go and in some cases to let them go.  Clean it up or clear them out of your life to learn to clean up again on their own!
