"I've made mistakes because I wasn't the perfect husband and the perfect dad because I was always gone travelling the world"

wow…reading that article sounded like a soap.

I have a feeling that he will keep going on anyway.

“I’ve made mistakes because I wasn’t the perfect husband and the perfect dad because I was always gone travelling the world”

I’m sure there’s some enlightening context to this quote, but as it stands, it gives some intriguing insight into the ways we might tend to exonerate ourselves. Perfect husbands don’t make mistakes. Was he expected to be the perfect husband? If he’s not a perfect husband, are these mistakes inevitable? I’m not sure where the blame is falling here. And in the second half of the sentence, he might have been the perfect dad if he hadn’t traveled so much. These are some interesting uses of the word “because.”

Anyway, I’m sorry when any marriage dissolves, especially one that so many people worldwide think is associated with a Christian minister who possesses the Holy Spirit. I only mention it because we are all prone to make such incomprehensible justifications for our own sins. It just sounds plausible when I say it. :)
