excuses, excuses, excuses

there all types of people in the world, but i think the coolest, most honest people in the world are those who don't or rarely give excuses. sometimes when i hear them, i cringe with disdain and think, come on, grow up. there's always an excuse on why something you were responsible for didn't happen, and you may even get in the good graces of the person you stood up, didn't do something for, or whoever the affected party is if you give a great, believable, or even truthful excuse, but that gets old my friends... true maturity comes when you take responsibility, apologize for your fault, and carry on with life, excuse-free, or owning your faults......at least you're being honest and it's now up to the person to trust your dependability and up to you to work on it.

let's play fill in the blank...EXCUSES ARE LIKE ---------- EVERYONE HAS THEM.
