What
is responsibility?
Responsibility
is the mindfulness to perform those actions that promote the greater good for
yourself and others. When we are responsible, we contribute to the well being
of ourselves and others. To be responsible we must have brave hearts and the
determination to take risks to protect society from harm. If problems should
arise, responsible people will try to solve them. G00d people perform good acts
and avoid evil acts for the sake of society’s peace.

Compared
to other creatures, human beings have the best body and mind structures to
perform goodness. Our minds and hands can be used to meditate, to reflect or to
perform activities. For example, although we are hot as big as elephants or as
strong as tigers, our hands can enable us to bring foods, medicines, cloths,
gifts, etc. to our parents. It is our responsibility to dignify all forms of
life. By dignifying others, we also dignify ourselves.
Buddha once said, “Some people will ignore doing crucial things
while dedicating their lives to useless or bad things.” Some people are willing
to risk gossiping. Why is this a risk?
Because they might lose their friends if their friends discover they
gossiped. The former friend may seek revenge for being maligned. Gossiping is
harmful to relationships. Some people may dedicate their lives to chasing money
or engaging in car racing. Some take mood-altering substances such as alcohol.
Alcoholics will endanger their lives for the sake of drinking too much.

We have responsibilities to practice acts of goodness. Performing
acts of goodness, as often as we can, will create the habit of practicing
goodness. A “doing good” program is created within ourselves afterward. People
who act responsibly are either directly or indirectly rewarded, while
irresponsible people will eventually lose what they have. Everyone gets what he
or she deserves in the end. At first, irresponsible people lose their pride and
their self-respect. Later, they will lose their trust and respect from others.

It is the duty of good people everywhere to stand for integrity.
