If you take your self, your thoughts, your feelings, your emotions, your will at face value, then it’s your self that will determine you. Your self will form you. You will turn into your self and you’ll lose being you.
“The self isn’t, on its own, complete. It isn’t, on its own, whole. You are. And as you move within your self in a way that is true to you, that movement necessarily deconstructs your self and it comes back together differently, matching you.”
“My sole purpose is to be, in life, what we are after we’ve died. Through openness and softness of heart and core-splitting honesty at any personal cost, I live as that while actualizing the same in others I meet. I am available as a resource for anyone who recognizes and values this way of being.”
