The issue of personal responsibility keeps coming up again and again everywhere I turn, in real life and online. It boggles my mind that so many people seem to have abdicated all responsibility for their lives and happiness, and are so quick to lay blame. It's fate's fault, or their mother's, or husband's, or the evil bloggers. The bag boy at the grocery store probably has it in for you, too. Then there is the delightful irony of watching the very same people laying blame for how the act and react at the feet of other people, telling those same other people that they should control how they act and react so those who have no control can feel better. So, for those who feel they must lay the blame for their personal happiness on everybody else's doorstep, I say:

Own your shit. Hug it, love it, take it home and call it George.
