Responsibility

My definition of responsibility is being responsible for ones actions. Everyone has had responsibilities but some people ignore them or blame it on somebody else. Ones characteristics can affect how they handle responsibility.

A story of responsibility. I borrowed the movie "Yes Man" from my friend Jamal and he said he wanted it back in a month. I watched the movie about 300 time during the 2 weeks. My best friend Austin came over and we started watching "Yes Man". His mom told him to go home, so he asked to borrow the movie to finish the movie. Without asking Jamal, I said yes and gave him the movie. A week later he returned the movie broken. Austin and I tried to find a copy of the movie so we could give it to Jamal, but we could not find one and I took responsibility and gave him money for a new movie.

I am responsible for part of the movie breaking. The reason is because I was the only one who should have had it at my house. Austin is mostly responsible for the broken movie. He could have prevented what ever happened to the movie.
