Taking Charge

When life punches you in the face, would you fight back?

For 23 years, my life was surrounded by a culture of blaming. It almost felt like a cult that whenever something bad happens to you, find someone and blame him for it! Everyone was afraid to take responsibility for his or her actions. No one wanted to be called a failure. They despised being called losers. That is why they play the role of the victim and that's why they blame. That is why they complain about everything because they, themselves, wouldn't want to go through all the trouble of fixing something broken. The only thing that, I saw, was broken is their spirit. Their will to live life to the fullest was gone.

Recently, I decided to take charge of my life. I chose to be responsible for all my actions. I became the Captain of my ship. Since then, I did everything with a sense of purpose. I don't have to listen to what other people say especially when I do something with an intention of adding value to a person's life. It was very liberating to be able to detach from my pre-conditioned beliefs

I already took charge of my life. When will you take charge of yours?
