Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth. ~ Benjamin Disraeli

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 OK.

I just want a woman who can sit me down, shut me up, tell me ten things I don't already know, and make me laugh. And if you can do that, I will follow you on bloody stumps through the snow. I will do your windows. I will care about your feelings. Just have something there. ~ Henry Rollins

When you grow up in America things like Christianity water down your feelings... When you're taught to love everybody, taught to love your enemies, what value does that put on love? ~ Marilyn Manson

Don't apologize for your real feelings. Deliver your message. Own it. Then stay with it. ~ Phil McGraw
