I Am Me | |
In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me | |
Everything that comes out of me is authentically me | |
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 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 can 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 – 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 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 |
