Responsibility is a high voltage thing. Maybe even a burden. A burden that may make us tired carrying, and for most people responsibility is a cause of some happiness. But none the less life has responsibilities so we have to find our way of making them fulfilling, worthy and enriching.
Also burdens can make us stronger, just like lifting weights eventually builds strength.
To be responsible, to take responsibility is an admirable thing. The law favours that, because it is the more dignified, logical and truthful thing to do.
To plead not-guilty when we are guilty is evading responsibility and is really undignified.
Out of the ego and the essence, the essence is the responsible one.
The ego does not like responsibility and avoids it, even when we are the responsible ones, the instigator of the wrong. Responsibility is a way to die in the ego.
If the essence does not take responsibility for its defects at some point it will never correct them.
To take responsibility is one of the first steps into the door to becoming a human being in the true esoteric sense of the word. The human soul is the master and it is the real human being not an intellectual animal. The master is one who has the human soul and who's life is governed by it.
That is one who now has the responsibility of upholding (living by) all those animic (human soul) principles.
"He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man." Hunter S. Thompson.
Some of the pains of being a human being is responsibility.
One's own path is one's responsibility. If we don't take responsibility for it no one else will and when we take responsibility for it we can do something about it.
End (3823).
