Responsibility

Are you responsible? Do you take care of your children? Your house? Your car? Can people depend on you at your job to “get it done?” I am responsible, in fact, sometimes too much. I try to help others with their responsibilities, but in fact, I shouldn’t do that. I am taking away a lesson for them.

Recently, I have a nightmarish tenant renting my mom’s house in North Carolina. Let me rephrase that, “this tenant is an absolute nightmare.” One of my favorite church friends said that word to me and it rang a bell in my head, yup! nightmare! That’s what this is! He seems to think it’s ok to pay his rent 27 days late, EVERY month. I know it’s my fault for letting him get away with his RESPONSIBILITY for 11 months but I didn’t want to get confrontational, what a joke! ME? I have my father’s blood running through me and HE knew how to take care of business. I think I was just waiting until summer time to take care of it correctly, legally, purposefully, with an end. After all, it is your responsibility to pay your rent isn’t it? Makes me angry that he is consistently trying to rip my 80 year old mother off. He tells my realtor “she is evicting us!” Like, jeez, she is so mean! My view is “yes, she is! That’s what happens when you don’t pay your rent…duh.” He lies to my attorney and says Mays rent is really Junes, when he himself wrote on the money order “Mays Rent.” What a jerk.

I apologize for venting, please say a prayer this all ends soon as it causes undue stress on my mom and me, :(.

Please take care of your responsibilities and don’t take over anyone else’s. This world would really be a better place if everyone just took care of their own responsibilities. Mothers and Fathers, please teach your children to take care of their own responsibilities, should be one of the most important parts of an education there is in this world.

Have a great day!
