i was reading lizard's blog and felt compelled to write on a similar subject.....owning ur decisions. one of my favorite questions to ask new ppl that i meet is if they regret anything they've ever done or said in their life. most ppl have a few things that they openly admit to me that they regret. now regret comes from feeling bad or guilt over a decision made. it makes me wonder if at the time they did not own the decision they made to do wrong to someone and its only in hindsight that they realize what they did. cause i have thought on numerous occassions about my past and this whole regret thing.......i dont regret anything that ive said or done to anyone, b/c i have known in every situation what the consequences would b as far as it either hurting me or the other person. i have owned every decision i have made.....sure sometimes it didnt work out the way i thought it would and i learned a lesson during those times but still no regret for the decision made. u gotta try right? well at least when it comes to the good things. ive heard too many times that u need to "own ur feelings".....ie--the fact that ur sad or pissed off w/e.....but how come we dont hear "own ur decisions" more? owning ur decisions means being responsible for what the hell ur doing, it means being held accountable. maybe there would b less hurt and regret in the world if more ppl owned their decisions. maybe more ppl would feel impowered and stand up for themselves if they just owned what was goin on around them. another favorite saying of mine is "step up"......im sure we've all heard the expression "step up and b a man". same principle folks, apply it to all aspects of ur life. ;)

makin a decision that u dont regret has to do with owning the choice u made, even if what u did hurt someone else. now if ur intentionally out to hurt someone or r doin "bad things" w/o realizing it, those r other issues and "bad things" need to b defined. ppl who hurt others w/o realizing it can b corrected by at least pointing out that the person hurt u or whoever...doesnt mean they will change their behavior. even if a person is continuously putting themselves in bad situations all u can do is point out the choices they keep makin and hope for the best. fixin something u dont know how to?? hmmm, some things just rnt fixable. sometimes when u fuck up thats just it, no second chances---its y more ppl need to stop and think b4 they just fly off the handle. bottom line...u can always step up, the choice is whether or not u have the balls to? if u dont, then quite frankly u dont deserve the sweat off my puss!!!
