7q. Following
are the advantages of taking one's responsibility for our part in any event:
(i).
Since we'll take responsibility of our actions, the concerned people will
know that we won't be playing the blame-game. They'll appreciate our forthrightness
& it'll also project us as a trustworthy person since, in the event of
things turning adverse, we'll not blame anyone for our mistakes.
(ii).
By seeing us owning responsibility, people themselves will be encouraged to
take responsibility for their actions. They'll know that it's better to take
blame for one's own action then to play the dirty blame-game (mud-slinging)
.
(iii).
As you take responsibility, you'll become more strong in character & you'll
definitely feel good & proud about yourself ; instead of feeling bad/guilty
for blaming someone else for your mistake cause; as we all know, we can run/hide
from others but not from self .
12a.
Isn't it ironical that, whenever we do some mistake,
we find our family members supporting the society, rather than us. In such
situations it is very common to hear one/all of these things - What will people
say? / You've spoiled our name? / Now we can't show our face to anyone? /
It would've been better if you were not born in our family? - and many of
the varients of these ; indicating that they are more concerned about others
than us.
If
family members are the top priority of every person, then why do people support
'The Society' (which doesn't belong to anyone)? Agreed that, to live in a
community, we've to follow it's norms; but, is it really right to give the
Control of our Lives (& that of our families) to this society. Society
includes people like us only, who also want protection & respect &
who also make mistakes just like us. Then why do we tend to be afraid of their
thinking at times of crisis?
When
some member of a family does something wrong (or different), why don't we
stick with him/her ( our very own beloved & priced person )? When we suffer,
society doesn't bother, its these family members only, who take care of us
& heal us with their genuine Love.
Society
has always been & always will point it's finger at us (every chance they
get). It'll very easily forget our helpful/positive contribution to it (if
applicable). So, why do we keep on trying to please society (by being afraid
of it)? It's not one person, it's a whole lot of people out there.
Just think for yourself
if it's possible for you to please this society & also, should you stick
with your Loved ones in the times of crisis or should you toss them away &
try to take refuge in this society? And very importantly - What will society
be able to do if all of you family members
stick together & be strong like a fist? Do le'me know your thoughts?
