Owning Up to Oneself

Owning Up to your Mistakes

I have never blamed 
my shortcomings 
on my bad luck,

Nor have I cursed God 
for my adversities.

Likewise, 
I wouldn’t like to credit 
my success 
to anyone else but me,

For I have worked hard for it.

Neither luck 
nor will God 
have anything to do with it.

I am equally responsible 
for my success 
and my failures,

I despise anyone 
claiming credit for either.

I am the creator of my destiny; 
and in worst case scenario, 
also its destroyer.
