  9. Interesting direction -- at one time, I might have thought of us as puppets, but I've since changed my mind ... we are responsible for our well being and growth!! We cannot allow others to pull the strings; we become stagnant in this role. Thank you for sharing.

    1. Yeah, we are responsible for our actions. But most of the times we act on the will of others just like puppets.

      Glad you liked it.
      Thanks. :)
