Responsibility

It really angers me to see grown adults who can't muster an ounce of responsibility. Sometimes life hands you a pile of bad luck and it sucks. Life goes on. But sometimes, that bad luck is brought on by you and you alone. Blame the government, the weather, your landlord, the bad driver in front of you or the fast food worker who forgot your fries. Blame whoever you want, but chances are, if you're placing the blame elsewhere, you have nowhere to look but in the mirror.

I have a few words to say to someone, but since I have little or no guts to actually tell them these things, here goes:

1) Go to work. Your job might work out better for you if you showed up.
2) Don't quit your current job, insult your boss and expect him to hire you back.
3) Quit letting your girlfriend pay for your life. It's rude, disgusting, and sad that she lets you do that to her.
4) Stop buying (or making your girlfriend buy) frivolous things. You can only do this when you have a job that you actually show up for.
5) Stop thinking that drinking makes you cool. It does not. Many people agree with this and have discussed it in length with me. The smoking isn't winning us over either.
6) Stop going on vacation when you owe people money.
7) Call your daughter. Send her a note at school. Make a gesture of any kind.

I'm sorry if this insults you. That's not the purpose. There are many good qualities about you, but they really get overshadowed when you act like points 1 - 7 above. So stop it. I hate being mean. It's just really hard to see someone that you love going downhill so fast.
