Who's to Blame

I find myself blaming everyone and everything except myself for all of the shortcomings that make me miserable. I blame stress and my schedule for the food I eat, but yet I am the one who buys the food and eats it in large quantities late at night. When I am feeling lonely, sad, depressed I blame it on my ex-boyfriend. When I am tired I blame it on the lack of sleep I got, however, I was the one who decided to put in a movie late at night because I thought it would help me sleep even though it never does. When I feel unsuccessful I blame it one the world and the pressure it places on my generation, but yet I become lazy at times when I try to strive for something big. What I am saying is it is easy to place the blame on other things and people in our desperate search for happiness, but to actually obtain the lifestyle we want we have to own up to our shortcomings and find ways to work through our own problems.
