Personal responsibility means that you must admit your own mistakes. It means that you must change to the right way when you recognize that you have made an error. Part of personal responsibility is to search for the truth and part of the truth is that everyone makes mistakes. Part of the truth is that mistakes can be fixed and attitudes can be changed. Allowing other people this kind of leeway is part of personal responsibility.
True personal responsibility is based on doing what is right for yourself AND your family AND your neighbors. Accepting this responsibility and making an honest effort to live up to it will give you self respect and lead you toward a real understanding of the idea of love. Personal responsibility is the basis of healthy people, families and communities.
