Rewrite the following formal sentence in a more conversational style. This may require the use of more than one sentence. Make changes to both

sentence structure and word choices.
It ill becomes us to cast about for someone to blame, to flee unpleasant realities,
or to hide the clear facts in a cloud of finger-pointing-we must take responsibility.
