constantly evolving-in all the world-there is no one else exactly like me-everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because i alone choose 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 any given moment in time is authentically me-if later some parts of how i looked, sounded, thought, and felt turned out to be unfitting, i can discard that which i feel 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 and to make sense and order out of a world of people and things outside of me-i own me, and therefore i can engineer me-i am me-i AM okay
