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.
Whether I wanna be or NOT..I am.
Wait.
Let me say that with a little more enthusiasm.
I AM responsible! Wooooohooooooo!
*shudder*
