This is interesting

No correction taken sir/ma'am

No correction ever taken sir/ma'am

that is the summary of life

no human ever want's to be wrong 

but are we not destined to make mistakes

especially since we are mortals.

So why is it that every time we say we

do not like something hence, we don't want it to

repeat itself- it sounds like a hateful

comment.  Ben is angry that Betsy is angry

or that she did not take the news as expected.

And because of that takes it upon himself,

that it is his fault that she is unhappy, and thinks

of ways to have composed himself differently. 

But Betsy thinks the composition was great.  She 

is glad that he told her even though the news 

ruined her evening.  However, it is what

happened that upset Betsy, it is that, that 

prompted her to write.  Ben needs to accept 

that the mistake has been made, and agree that 

it will not repeat itself. But instead of saying I will

be careful next time, there is an argument first 

and then afterwards he accuses her of saying 

something wrong -it is the way you said it.  

Why can't it be? I did not expect it to

be this hurtful and it will not repeat itself.

Why not save each other some trouble and

be happy. But instead he says Betsy you are 

always mad for too long ...

Little things always upset you...

Ben maybe telling the truth but is it appropriate to 

say such things to Betsy not that she hurts. Is it 

appropriate to say things that make situations

worst.  The interesting thing is we all have our 

own faults.  Betsy hates to also be corrected

but the one she does't do is when one tells her

something annoyed or hurt their feelings

She hates to dwell on it for the sake of defending 

herself.  In fact she doesn't even need to say it 

twice that she will do her best for it not to 

happen again or else she forgets.
