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 feeling, 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 my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes, because i own all of me. I become intimately acquainted with me. by so doing i can love me and be friendly with me in 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 for ways to find out more about me. How ever 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, fell, 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 ok.
