Take 100% responsibility for your life

To live a life free from guilt, anger, and jealousy, you must take 100% responsibility.  Everything you see, hear, taste, touch, or experience is yours alone and you have to own it.  There should be no blame toward yourself, or others, but a life of forgiveness.    To change your life for the better, you must first change your perception of the problem. Anyone or anything you see as a problem must first be resolved inwardly, not outwardly.  As the saying goes you can't change others.  You can only change yourself.  Total responsibility, according to the Hawaiian "Ho’oponopono" belief, states that everything that exists in your life is a projection from within.    The Ho'oponopono mantra - "I'm sorrry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you," is a mental practice to make things right.  I look forward to one day discussing this philosophy with you.
