Default I AM ME AND I AM OKAY!

My Declaration of Self-Esteem....

"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
