"I have to follow my own path, find my own way, as we all must. I am the
one ultimately responsible for my destiny, so I can't help but take an
active role in shaping it.
"This means I must examine my past experiences and the patterns of thought
resulting from them, especially those that limit me. Until I recognize
them and stop succumbing to then, I will remain wounded.
"Some of the negative attitudes I bring from my past show up as a tendency
to be overly cautious, lonely, self-absorbed, or entirely too inhibited. I
wonder if I ought to throw away the conventional and do something truly
innovative.
"My dream is to acquire greater insight about myself and humankind and to
express my ideas more freely. I hope I don't get scared or shut myself
down before I fulfill the destiny described in my key phrase:
finding my way."
