It's human nature to...

We haven't really talked about this in class,however it is something that does relate to human nature. I was at a program today and the presenter stated that it was human nature to be reluctant to admit when we had a problem. I can't really say this is true for everyone but, from experience I can say that it is true for some. People are quick to say nothing is wrong when there is clearly something wrong; whether it be something wrong personally or with another person. It seems people rather act out than come to terms with the thing that is bothering them.
It isn't hard to say "You know what I have a problem and unless I finally come to terms with it I won't overcome it." It is crazy the things people go through than to just admit the truth. Maybe it's pride, a fear of maybe being rejected by others, or worse having to admit that they were wrong. If there is a problem it can easily be solved by naming it. If the problem is with someone else don't lie to others and yourself and go on without resolving the issue with the person. Things are made to be talked out hence the reason God gave us mouths and the knowledge to comprehend what people are saying. It isn't ok to not admit when a problem is at hand , because denial is a sad and sometimes tragic thing.

I think that a lot of times, too, people do not realize that there is a problem.
