Let me say that I posted that “society is to blame” reasoning before I even read the first line.

I remember an old adage to the general effect that...

"Blaming someone else puts you in a prison and gives that other person the key."

"But the very act of accepting personal responsibility for a problem is an act of such bravery that fate hands you the key to your prison door."

"Furthermore, such act provides you with the clarity of mind and strength of spirit to not only unlock that door but to see all the other prison cells your cowardice has committed your spirit to and gives you the power to unlock ALL the doors."
