If I had stayed for other people to make my tools and things for me, I had never made anything. ~ Isaac Newton
NOTE: Our lives are in our hands. When we come to the realization that our lives are our responsibility we become powerful and shed our powerlessness. We no longer hold on to a sense of alienation believing we are separate from the outcomes of our labor. It’s true, things don’t always turn out how we plan. Because they don’t turn out the way we planned, it doesn’t mean we’ve lost or we’re stuck. All it means is that it is up to us to find another way and perhaps a different destination. If we don’t take responsibility for our lives we remain a victim. No emotionally healthy person wants to remain a victim. An emotionally healthy person shakes it off and moves ahead with hope.
