Paul Coste

What Is Responsibility?


What is responsibility?

 

Is it taking the trash out?

Is it cleaning your room, or washing the dishes?

 

Is it doing well in school?

Getting your license?

Or, is it turning eighteen?

 

Is it getting a job?

Voting?

Is it raising a family?

 

Or is it just doing what you’re told?
