  • I happen to be really good at it until the sun goes down and I'm alone with my thoughts. In those quiet moments, the self-delusion fades and then I am remorseful.

    I'm really good at justifying it....it's always far far better then feeling  guilty  about the mischief I've gotten up to.... :)

  • Nah I just take the heat,, no need to try to make crap up to justify it.  At least it rarely happens :)

    I do and have engage d in what many would considerable "reprehensible" and yes I have justified some of it both to myself and others.  Some things  I have been unable to justify so leave them alone.  A lot I see as not justification but simply accepting my weaknesses.
