Good morning
When I found this piece hanging on a wall I though it was profound, because you see I was lost and somewhat depersonalized for most of my life and didn’t even know it. It helped me find my authentic self!
In all the world there is no one else exactly like me
everything that comes out of me is authentically mine
because I alone choose it – I own everything about me,
my body,me feelings, my mouth, my voice,all my actions,
whether they be to others or to myself – I own my fantasies
my dreams, my hopes, my fears – I own all 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 me in all my body 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 for 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 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
