Journal #2 10/15
I would say that my spine would be responsibility. I always feel like I am responsible for everything and everyone around. I think this comes from when I was very little and had to take care of my little sister. I potty trained by sister when I was 5 because my dad was working and my mom went back to school. When my parents got divorced, I would sometimes make dinner for my sister and then my mom would put her to sleep. With my new siblings, I definitely have a lot of responsibility when it comes to taking care of them. Even with my friends, I feel like I'm responsible for me. I think that it makes me see the risks in situations more than other people, especially people my age.

You certainly have a mature outlook on life. It sounds like you have a lot of responsibility for someone of your age. One thing that we have to work on, especially as women, is understanding that our first responsibility is to ourselves and our own well-being. As the old adage goes, you can't fill other people's wells if your well is dry.
