Being responsible- The word?

Remember yesterday I said we were going to start taking about taking control, please see the quote below by Leo Tolstoy and ponder on what it might mean to you.....?

“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but nobody thinks of changing themselves” Leo Tolstoy

There are many reasons am in love with the English Language, but the most important reason is the flexibility you have in terms of using one word to describe another word. When it comes to the word responsibility this holds true more than any other word I can think of right now. Before I can fully dive into the many words to describe responsible, will you please allow me to present you with the best definition I have found for the word responsible;

1. Liable to be required to give account, as of one's actions or of the discharge of a duty or trust.

2. Involving personal accountability or ability to act without guidance or superior authority: a responsible position within the firm.

3. Being a source or cause.

4. Able to make moral or rational decisions on one's own and therefore answerable for one's behaviour.

5. Able to be trusted or depended upon; reliable.

6. Based on or characterized by good judgment or sound thinking: responsible journalism.

7. Having the means to pay debts or fulfil obligations.

8. Required to render account; answerable:

Looking at the 8 line definition above, have you being a responsible person?
