Living in the world, we have to bear all kinds of responsibilities, from family, relatives and friends to our own responsibilities to the country and society. Most of these responsibilities should be borne. However, we should not forget that in addition, we also have a fundamental responsibility, that is, to be responsible for our own lives.
Everyone has only one chance to live in this world, and no one can live it again instead of him. If this only life is wasted, no one can really comfort him. Realizing this, how can we realize our own life?
A strong sense of responsibility? In a sense, all other responsibilities in the world can be shared or transferred, but the responsibility for your own life can only be borne by yourself, and you can't rely on others at all.
More than that, I also want to say that the sense of responsibility for one's own life is the root of all other sense of responsibility. Only when a person is responsible for his own life and has established his own life goals and beliefs can he consciously choose and assume his responsibilities to others and society. As Goethe said, "Responsibility is to have a love for what you ask." Because of this love, due diligence itself becomes a realization of the meaning of life, from which we can get spiritual satisfaction. On the contrary, I can't imagine how a person who doesn't love life can love others and his own career, and how a person who goes with the flow in life can firmly assume the responsibilities in life. The actual situation is often that such people either regard their due diligence as a burden imposed on them by the outside world and reluctantly bear it, or regard it as a pure effort and ask for a return.
A person who doesn't know what responsibility he has for his life doesn't even know what his responsibility is in the world. A young lady asked Tolstoy what she should do to fulfill her responsibility to mankind. Tolstoy was very disgusted, so he thought that the great disaster people suffered for this was that they did not have their own beliefs, but insisted on living according to certain beliefs. Of course, such a belief can only be empty. This is a situation. More commonly, many people are really completely passive about the relationship between responsibility and responsibility. The reason why they regard some practices as their responsibility is not out of conscious choice, but because of habits, fashion, public opinion and other reasons. For example, some people take an occasional but long-term career as their responsibility and never try a career that really suits their nature. Some people feel responsible for making money and spending money when they see others making money and spending money. Some people attach great importance to the evaluation of others, especially their superiors, and live carefully for this evaluation. Because they have never seriously thought about their mission in life, they must be blind on the issue of responsibility.
Therefore, living in this world, we must know what we really want. A person has a clear understanding of what he wants to do in this world, and he will get a kind of inner peace and enrichment by doing these things seriously. He knows where his responsibility lies, so all kinds of wrong ideas about responsibility can't shake him. I also believe that if a person can be responsible for his own life, then he will be responsible for his actions in all social relations, including marriage and family. If a society is composed of such members who are responsible for their own lives, then it must be a high-quality and efficient society.
