you are responisble for yourself

i was talking to a good friend of mine, ive known him for years. we started talking and he is the last person i would have thought to figure it out….and hes right. its time for me to fess it up…stop blaming depression stop blaming whatever else ive been blaming… stop thinking that the reason i act the way i do it past my own control… i need to stop “overanylyzing [myself] to the extent that any character flaw that [i] see in [me] is so overmagnified that antoher person would brush it off as simply” to but it in his words ”a quirk in character” hes right and ive never had it worded more clearly…”but could you be seeking answers to these problems for some sort of excuse that these quirks are something that you have no control over, and that you yourself are trying to escape the possible reality that you are responsible for these lapses in character? trying to avoid the idea that you are responsible for them and that you dont want to say, “hey, i did that”

and hes right…i have to stop trying to blame what i do on things i cant control, buck up and take the responcibility. say “hey, i just totally over reacted and made a bigger deal out of nothing…and im sorry i shouldnt have done that.” take the responsibility and concequenses for acting stupid and making an ass of myself. time to own up and grow up…its time to change and its time to stop withthe excuses. because they will get you nowhere in life….as the conversation continued more was said…and i have discovered that you are where you are for a reason, dont dwell on what could have been or what has been. it will only keep you in the past and hold you back from moving on and growing as a person.
