Ewa’s Thoughts in Words

Responsibilities

Sometime in life we need to be quiet… to listen…

We need to sit back to think…

We need to withdraw from the stage to see clear the actions of actors in the drama…

Life is loaded with odds and possibilities

Responsibilities however, have been identified as one of those themes associated with life to which every human person is bound. It can be described as  a one size fit all kind of jacket.

We are drawn to our responsibilities as a metal to magnet… And as difficult as living life may seem, our responsibilities have remained a constant, irrespective of our economic status or social standing.

As we know, we all owe one another certain levels of responsibilities as expected by the kinds of relationships that we operate or find ourselves in. For example, parents to their children, children to their parents.

Teachers to students, students to teachers. Employer to employee, employee to employer. Government to its citizens, citizens to government. Religious leaders to their followers, followers to their leaders. Society to the people and the people to the society and the list goes on. That is to say our responsibilities are defined by our different levels of engagements and involvements.

Though we sometimes want to dodge or plead ignorant just to hands off that burden that nature itself has laid on us to care for one another, the issue of responsibility is not a matter that we can easily shake off because we feel unable, inadequate or incapacitated. We might be able to physically evade our duties but can we ever mentally forget our failures to keep up with such duties? We fail each day in our various responsibilities and sometimes make it seem like it’s okay by making silly excuses that justify our failures. But the truth will always remain that we have failed and need to pick up where we left off if we must be better people the society needs to survive  and grow. We must take responsibility.
