The twenty-ninth of January

By having an attitude free from blaming others, good wishes are received from everyone*

Yes, it makes sense to me that people are more likely to like you and wish you well if you don't blame them for things. People also like honesty, though, so don't let your aversion to blaming other people lead you into dishonesty. It may help to remember that even if someone is clearly at fault, there may be extenuating circumstances that you don't know about, so they may not deserve as great a helping of blame as it may appear. In any situation, there's no need to rub blame in someone else's face; you've made mistakes before, too, remember?
