Description

This is the final version of the comic called "Shit Happens". Which is based on a scene in a story I'm making called "Going Down Under". About a young dingo and an old kangaroo escaping a dog-eat-dog state called "West Holland" though the Nullarbor so that they can have a better life in East Holland.

    Liam sat back down on the pavement and so did Codigh, both very drained.
    “Anyways, I’d like to talk to you about the difference between condemnation and conviction a bit.” Liam yawned. “It’s best to avoid being condemned in the first place in order to avoid us from doing things we shouldn’t do.
    “Let me start off with conviction. Conviction always includes some positive action that your conscience is telling you to do. Condemnation on the other hand, it may seem like conviction at first... but if you’d look at it carefully, its end goal is opposite to conviction, which is to get you distracted from changing.. Condemnation focuses more on berating oneself than changing oneself... which is the end goal of conviction... Condemnation overstates the facts about our guilt to generate despair and self-pity.”
    Even though Codigh already knew that, well, somewhat, the issues became clearer through Liam’s explanation. Though he suddenly felt condemned for feeling condemned… Was this a thing? Codigh cursed. This was ridiculous. But calms himself down and squeezes the ball in his hand.
    “You know, we may not be able to change the past, but we can change the present and therefore the future. So, if you ever find yourself feeling bad about the mistakes you’ve made, try to remember that as much as we can mess things up, we can change too. Shit happens, we all mess things up from time to time. What matters is that, once we recognize what we've done wrong, we apologise, and move on into becoming than what we used to.”
