It is always our own self that we find at the end of the journey. The sooner we face that self, the better.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Each of us must become impassioned, finding meaning and self-fulfillment in our own life's journey.
I always figure from the cradle to the grave, we all have our individual journeys, and maybe my journey was a positive one and I accomplished certain things without stepping on too many toes.
I suppose everyone continues to be interested in the quest for the self, but what you feel when you're older, I think, is that you really must make the self.
Our sense of self is a kind of construct. It is in some ways like a novel, and it's like a fabric of fictions that we patch together from memory.
It's a life's journey of finding ourselves, finding our power, and living for yourself, not for everyone else.
Realizing that we've surrendered our self-esteem to others and choosing to be accountable for our own self-worth would mean absorbing the terrifying fact that we're always vulnerable to pain and loss.
One of my problems is to find the self.
Self-exploration is very painful, but unless you do that, you will never know who you are and who you want to be.
Self-image sets the boundaries of individual accomplishment.
People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.
