responsibility

i am responsible for my life, and that would be something that I can't run away from.

this next month is going to be one of the toughest in my life. I won't go into details because I don't really want to share, but if I make it out of this month skinnier, I figure it'll be because I needed to lose the weight.

I'm glad that I've chanted enough right now to know that I have my life, I have the gohonzon, and I'm still able to chant to it and that's really all that I need to be happy.

It's time for me to change something in my life--something with my karma. I don't want to not face it anymore. Strength lies in not giving up. Courage lies in taking that first action. I am going to courage it up and strengthen that determination.
