Honest with yourself: admitting you were wrong, sentence 1
Jack's team lost and he blames the ref, but deep down he knows he missed an easy pass; Jesus asked why we look at the speck of sawdust in someone else's eye and ignore the plank in our own (Matthew 7:3-5).
Who acts: team, Jesus, we · What happens: lose, blame, know, miss, ask, look · To what, where: ref, easy pass, plank, own · Speech: someone speaks here
