The People In Charge

Taking responsibility for something other than ourselves and our own nappy change needs is a useful way to discover a bit more internal sympathy for The People In Charge.

Though, it’s true, some of them should never ever have been put in charge in the first place. If our systems and structures are causing people who are still in metaphorical nappies to be raised up to those positions, then something is very wrong.

Responsibility is best quietly taken. It shouldn’t be easily given.

And we should beware of people who grasp on to it and fight for it, like some kind of comfort blanket they can’t manage without.
