What is it that makes people able (or not able) to handle responsibility? And really big, serious, important responsibility at that! Is it something that responsible people just naturally have? I believe it can be learned - especially if you're taught from a young age - but there are those who have trouble and cannot handle too much responsibility, no matter what the preparation.
And I suppose the only way you really know what people can handle is by giving them little things to accomplish at first, and then adding a little more, and a little more - and seeing how they react.
I have, what feels to me right now to be, a gigantic responsibility. Not only am I responsible for my own doings, but also for those things that other people are responsible for doing. I hope I am able to live up to my own responsibilities - and am also able to empower those working with me for the greater good to live up to theirs as well.
