We can feel that things are wrong in the world and if you are like me you could set about identifying the people or person responsible and then blame them for all the wrongs.
Many people have a tendency to do this.
Parents can blame teachers and teachers can blame parents when things don't go well in education. Children can blame parents and teachers while parents and teachers blame the children.
We all can blame the government and the government can blame us.
We blame particular groups of people for the ills in the world depending on where we live and our political or religious outlook. We can rely on other people to fix things.
Where does this really get us?
I think I blame others when it hurts to acknowledge any part in things that are not working well in any area of life.
I am going to look at situations that I am unhappy with more carefully now and I will see what I can do to influence change. My intention is to do this as often as I can. I am willing to accept responsibility for my actions and will change them if they need changing.
What other people do is up to them providing they are not hurting other people, creatures or the environment. I am responsible for myself and my actions.
I truly believe that when we accept our part in everything we become truly powerful. We speak up for what we believe in and people that support our standpoint will do likewise.
If we do things kindly, fairly and with the best of intentions we have the best chance of doing our part to make this world a better place.
