I will not bore you with the story, of how I learned what I am about to share with you. But I will share with you that I have felt this way for many years and for many years I could not put it into as simple of term as "I Create it all" Which was a topic of discussion in my online class. The concept behind this is something I have done for many years. In my life things happen and those things that happen I tell myself are cause by my actions. Now to take responsibility of something is to gain control of it. This puts the power back in your hands. One can always blame everything and anything else but to control your own life to take responsibilities for things in your life keeps it your life. Example...
I am walking down the street and a person walks into me. After this person walks into me they turn and say, I'm sorry, I turn and say no problem.
While most people would become upset by the person that walked into... with remarks like "Watch where you’re going...!" or "You saw me walking here...” I will leave out any choice words a person would most likely use in a situation like this. Now the reason I do not get upset is because had I been paying better attention to my surroundings had I been faster, had I to avoid the person as I feel I should be. Then it would of never happen. To take responsibility in my life is a way I use to better myself in anything I do. There is only one aspect I can control and truly that is me and my actions. If I wait for every else to do something to make me better or to better my life then I would be unhappy for the rest of it.
I feel like everything I do in life every feeling I have everything I care to share will always come full circle and connect to each other. The reason I say this because in my last post I spoke about the "pursuit of happiness" How would you feel if I said this concept that I have lived by directly relates and helps my pursuit of happiness. In a way it improves it, and provides me with tools to always change my happiness so that I can always pursuit it. The point is to better ones self in any situation and return as quickly as one can to their desired pursuit of happiness.

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the speculation...
ReplyDeleteHowever; I'd like to know..... what reaction would you have if the person this were to happen with, would feel that you were at fault and felt you should have indeed looked where YOU were walking... and instead of apologizing, responded to YOU with "Watch where you’re going...!" or "You saw me walking here...” or my personal favorite "Could I have my shoulder back"(LOL) While you can control you and your actions how would you mediate those of another (that involved you) before they escalated? would you turn the other cheek and continue on your pursuit of happiness?
Inquiring minds would like to know....
~Meme~
My first reaction is...
ReplyDeleteResponding to "Watch where your going..."
to say "I'm trying, walking is kind of hard..."
or...
responding to "Could I have my shoulder back..."
"I'm sorry; I didn't realize I took it, my apologizes good sir or madam..."
The main point in "I Create it All." Is to take control back in every and all situations even if your not at fault cause as long as you hold the responsibility you always hold the control of how far any altercation goes.
My reasoning to this method is: the longer you spend time in someone else pursuit of happiness or lack there of the longer you are out of yours.
