Take the time to come home to yourself every day..
We must be our own before we can be another's. All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself. We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves. It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.Learn to... be what you are, and learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not..The question still remains in my head from time to time, Am I intelligent enough to understand myself?
