Buck Up Bucko

 
Taking responsibility for our own actions
Is a commitment to self-discipline and accountability
It’s empowering
Whereas the victim mentality is a reactionary view
When looking for pity
     Just because life can be hard sometimes…

Outside factors don’t care what we want
What we think
What we say
But remember our happiness lies within
In our own state of mind
And what matters most
     is how we respond

The choices we make define us
We can choose to be weak
     and blame everyone else for shortcomings
Or we can rise to the challenges
Ask ourselves the right questions
Learn to understand and maneuver
     through difficult situations

So Buck up
Deal with it
And never play the victim
