An excuse is a reason for which an individual does or doesn’t do something; it is a transfer of blame from oneself to some other external.
"I did not attend the gym today because I was tired".
"I don't spend my free time reading books because its boring".
"I get drunk because it relaxes me".
"I am overweight because I love food too much".
"I am poor because of the top 1%".
The penultimate excuse involves the movement of things (Time): "I couldn't because I ran out of time".
