    the one thing you should NOT do is say you need to move to another state country or city or whatever else to "find yourself!" I think that is the dumbest thing EVER. No offense to YOU if u were thinking of saying that! :D
    Just look deep within.

    Nope wasn't planning on it! I'll move AFTER I find myself. If that ever happens.:(

    Stop looking.

    that's what i was thinking


    and even if you think you've "found yourself" as your life progresses what you think you've found changes

    concentrate on the now and be the person you want to be

    Quiet time spent alone deep in thought. it seems hard to think about yourself but think about children and how they are so into themselves. I look at my daughter when I get down and I think, "gosh I was once a little girl, when did I settle?".
    We have to grow past our selfish traits as we get older but nothing wrong with trying to see just where we need to go in life. Balance is key in everything.

    (wow I should take my own advice)...........
    Perhaps I will, keep me posted............

    That's the thing...I don't feel like I settled. Everything I've done I've wanted...but it was taken from me.the reality I see and the reality I live are 2 different things. Neither what I want, but more so what was forced upon me.
