I own that it is my sole responsibility for the choices I make and I do my very best to make the 'right' choice and so if there is some 'loss'  who's to say it is? and the truth is  "is that so?"  The moment's evaluation  of conditions are embedded in a larger story - like in the story of the man who has a horse wander in to his farm.
