Blame Is the Cure
Cure Everything
Throw the Rudder Down
Throw the Rudder Down


So why, why this lack of responsibility in our culture? I'm going to get out of the way and quote from Recipes for Self-Healing by Daverick Leggett.

Finding out that they can be responsible for the creation of their health leads some people to feel that they are to blame. There is a kind of compassionless view within the 'new age' that confuses responsibility with blame. We have made the best choices we could at the time; it is useless to be angry or blaming towards ourselves once we see the ways that we have helped create our own problems. Personal responsibility has nothing to do with blame. On the contrary, the realisation of responsibility is the means by which we make the shift from victimhood to self-empowerment.
