Meet "Mis-guided"
Hello, I would like to introduce myself, I am Miss-Guided. Most of you have met me and many have come to know me personally.
I don't mean to, but I create havoc wherever I'm found. Those who find their way to me, usually do so with the best intentions. And those who pursue my directions often lose sight of their original purpose.
People meet me on their path to personal achievement or in pursuit of justice. They begin their journey with pure motives and noble efforts, but influenced by others along the way, they find Miss-Informed and she begins to make them lose their way.
I should not be confused with Miss-chievious or Miss-conceived. I do not exist for the purpose of causing pain. I am not vindictive, cruel, or opportunistic. I am merely encountered when someone loses their direction.
Once someone comes across me in their search for accomplishment, I serve to transverse their path and they are blinded to being lost. They become jaded and begin to fight for their "principle" in an unreasonable quest.
I am responsible for the emergence of Miss-Understanding who steps in with tunnel vision and blind spots that blur the view of truth and incapacitates genuine insight.
When someone realizes they must fight to continue their journey, it is then I manifest in negativity and vicious endeavor. I can confound even the most centered person. My road is a dead-end and leads to Miss-takes.
My final destination is realized with regret. But I can be overcome through prayer and humility. The pain of having met me is healed by simply saying, "I was wrong and I'm sorry." And, the encounter leaves such an impression that people will avoid me in the future.
Those who value self-satisfaction above their principles, always lose them both.
