The Blame Game
It seems like so often
we play the blame game.
It’s when we blame someone else
for outcomes,
rather then take responsibility
for ourselves and our own actions.
Like when my students want to blame me
because they did not do their homework
or engage in our discussions.
Or when I want to blame others
because I did not work my business
to the capacity I should have.
When I hear myself wanting
to blame others,
I stop and own my actions
or inactions and take responsibility.
The buck stops with me
as the saying goes.
I am the one responsible
for what I choose to do
or not do with my life.
The blame game has
no more room in my life.
