My thought on responsibility

The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny. - Albert Ellis

As I've mentioned here before I forgave some one from my childhood recently and felt so much relief. Following that I have started going through my resentments and realize that all of my problems in life are my responsibility. I may not deserve some of the things that have happened in my past but I take full responsibility for how I deal with them today. Every end result of a situation I go through depends on how I deal with it. I feel so much relief and I know that the best years of my life have just begun. Waking up in the morning with a clear mind and no anger or resentments is wonderful.
