[MD] Do you own...

[Margaret Warren]

When I read this - I immediately thought of a spanish phrase I learned once:

'dese su puesto' (sorry if I didn't spell or use correct diacritical marks)
-

translated it means (or should mean - if my spanish is correct):

'give yourself your place' - there was a time when I was very 
insecure and had a hard time accepting that I deserved many things
I had worked at personally, spiritually, intellectually, financially. 
It took a while before I could say - yes, I own myself.

also I think of it when something happens and maybe I was at fault -
the phrase, "own it"...own up to it. Own who you are in the moment;
good/bad/neutral.

do you accept responsibility for your actions - good and bad and where
you fit in the moment - 

"correct situation, correct relationship, and correct function" - to me,
this is synonymous with Quality...
