16 Oct 09 Me?

“ I am Me ”

In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me.

Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it

I own everything about me :  my body,  my feelings,  my mouth,  my voice,  all my actions,  whether they be to others or myself

I own my fantasies,  my dreams,  my hopes,  my fears

I own my triumphs and successes,  all my failures and mistakes

Because I own all of me,  I can become intimately acquainted with me

By so doing,  I can love me and be friendly with all my parts

I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me,  and other aspects that I do not know, but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself,  I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me.

However I look and sound,  whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me

If later some parts of how I looked,  sounded,  thought,  and felt turn out to be unfitting,  I can discard that which is unfitting,  keep the rest,  and invent something new for that which I discarded.

I can see,  hear,  feel,  think,  say,  and do

I have the tools to survive,  to be close to others,  to be productive,  and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me

I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me.

“ I am me, and I am Okay ”
