Early in my own personal metaphysical journey I was handed this “Declaration of Responsibility” by Danny Cox. I have saved it for probably now 20 years. I think it is an awesome declaration and feel it is worthy sharing. If you would like to get on board with the right attitude to play the game of life and manifest good karma through out the duration of your planet earth journey you will want to read this excellent perspective on living life.
I currently posses everything I’ve truly wanted and deserved. This is based on what I have handed out to date. My possessions, my savings and my lifestyle are an exact mirror of me, my efforts and my contribution to society. What I give, I get. If I am unhappy with what I have received it is because, as yet, I have not paid the required price. I have lingered too long in the “quibbling stage”.
I fully understand that time becomes a burden to me only when it is empty. The past is mine and at this very moment I am purchasing another twenty-four hours of it. The future quickly becomes the past, at a control point called the present moment. I not only truly live at that point, but I have full responsibility for the highest and best use of the irreplaceable now.
I accept full responsibility for both the success and failures in my life. If I am not what I desire to be at this point, what I am is my compromise. I no longer choose to compromise with undeveloped potential.
I am the sum total of the choices I have made and I continue to choose daily. What I now put under close scrutiny is the value of each up-coming choice. There in lies the quality of my future life style.
Will my future belong to the “old me” or the “new me”? The answer depends on my attitude toward personal growth at this very moment. What time is left is all that counts and that remaining time is my responsibility. With a newfound maturity I accept full responsibility for how good I can become at what is most important to me.
With personal growth comes a fear of the unknown and new problems. Those problems are nothing more than the increasing shadow of my personal growth. I now turn my very real fear, with God’s help, into a very real adventure.
My life now expands to meet my newfound destiny. “Old me”, meet the “new me”.
