This is wonderful news to realize.
It is also, I have found, a mighty responsibility.
It's so darn easy to lose sight of it in the heavy onslaught
of opinions and judgements from the outside world.
What "they" consider to be a success so easily worms its way
into your subconscious, polluting your own ideas and tainting your beliefs.
I'm still working relentlessly to free myself from
the myriad of messages I unknowingly picked up
from peer groups, magazine ads, TV, and so on.
And this was long before social media was a thing.
I admire the people I know who seem to have found their own way
through this hubbub of messages to determine the meaning they live by.
Namaste'
