I’m not going to lie, I’m taking Ziggy’s behavior very personally that lead to his ban. I’m obviously not upset at Charles for his decision because I understand he had to do what he had to do…because when push comes to shove, there’s only so much leniency to apply to someone who keeps repeating it. It just frustrates me because I totally think he’s a good guy at heart but he keeps letting these transgressions get to him. And he’s more of a religious Muslim than I am, but he still does this from time to time. It says a lot that I have to remind him of what Islam teaches when it comes to this. None of us are perfect, but as long as we have someone to keep each other in check, that’s what is needed at times.

Not everyone is self-sufficient enough to keep themselves in line, unfortunately.

This is also part of my self-introspection as well, because I’ve been guilty of it in the past so I can speak from experience.
