A long time ago a man told me "Responsibility essentially means response ability or the ability to respond". I had thought it meant that "it" was my fault and I would blame myself or the other person etc.. Blaming is a strategy, mostly unconscious, to avoid feeling shame when it is triggered and is always a tip that we are feeling shame. Blame is a barrier to our taking responsibility and a barrier to healing our shame.
Peace,
Ken
