As though it were the natural order of things, we regularly go about our business in ways that give us little time to reflect on who we are.
There comes a time though, whether as a result of outside forces in our life or those that well up from within, we are forced to confront this question. In doing so, we have the opportunity to go within, to probe our consciousness and spirituality, intent on finding our true self.
An unwavering belief in our own innate goodness is essential, as it serves to uplift our spirits and strengthen our conviction. Humility and stoical honesty, we come to learn, are necessary complements if we are to find that which we have so longed for.

“There comes a time”…
For me, my thinking was mostly critical and negative, my drinking ruined yet another special occasion, I was never honest with myself, and not least, my eating disorder was in control of my life, etc., etc. I had to look at my ‘self’ and change my thoughts and actions so I could change my life! blw
