See....it IS all about MEMEME......LOL

We have no control over others.
Realizing this relieves us of a great burden.

Afterall, controlling our own behavior is a big enough job.

Learning to behave responsibly takes practice.

Emotional immaturity is slow to depart, but every responsible action we take gives us the courage for another - and then another.
Our own fulfillment is the by-product of the accumulation of our own responsible actions.

Others' actions need not concern us.


Okay....I admit it. The reading fairy didn't have that last line in bold print.
I however, have it highlighted in the reading book FOR A REASON.

"Others' actions need not concern us."
Like minding my OWN isn't a full time job?


*sigh*

Responsible.
I AM responsible.

Whether I wanna be or NOT..I am.



Wait.

Let me say that with a little more enthusiasm.


I AM responsible! Wooooohooooooo!






*shudder*
