Taking responsibility is the beginning of taking care of your needs and not depending on anyone else to do that for you. You are responsible for loving you and protecting you. Debbie says that "the only business that is yours is discerning what is God's business. God's business is the deliverance of the soul's highest expression." You can take care of yourself better than anyone else can.
This rings clear to me. When I am not feeling good emotionally (ie. sad, angry, frustrated) it's usually because I'm not taking care of my needs; I'm waiting on someone else to guess what my needs are, fulfill them and make me feel good. Many times I sacrifice my needs because I'm waiting for someone else to take care of them for me. How is someone else supposed to know how to fulfill my needs and to love me the way I need to be loved. One may come close but never completely. I need to take responsibility for myself and so do you.
