Everywhere man blames nature and fate, yet his fate is mostly but the echo of his character and passions, his mistakes and weaknesses.

Oh my goodness, when I saw this quote I fell in love with it. So many of us seem to find something or someone to blame for our unpleasant circumstances. Not really thinking about how something we did or did not do could have led up to this point. A lot of times it's not even our recent actions, it could very well be past actions. Either way, 9 times out of 10 if we were to trace back all of our actions prior to our unpleasant circumstances, we will come to realization that we are the ones that caused our own problems. A huge problem in today's society is that so many people refuse to accept responsibility for their actions. Whether it's problem with our jobs, significant others, finances, children, school, peers, etc. Just like the quote states, these things happen because mistakes that we make. Whether it's a mistake in choosing who we want to be in a relationship with, a mistake choosing the wrong job, a mistake in not managing our money properly, and the list goes on. The important thing though is that we accept responsibility for our actions, learn from our mistakes, and make sure that we don't repeat the same mistakes in the future.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day today. Smooches :)
