whether it be others or oneself.

Take responsibility for your whole life -
regardless of circumstances.

Let us accept our own responsibility for the future.

I accept that no one else has ever been to blame
for either my joy or my suffering.
The entire cause of all my joys and all my sufferings
is my own emotional response to the events of my life.
