Seeking answers...oooo you're my kind of person. Seeking answers, being authentic. It is more than original. And there are a lot of people alive now for sure, but...<br />you are the only one with your history, your family unit, you're skills, your thoughts, your opinions, your goals. You are it. People may share one of these attributes, maybe two or three but not all. <br />Being authentic to me, is unashamedly accepting who you are and expressing it. Not forcing it down someone's throat, but being it. That's not easy when we want acceptance and some people will not accept us for the person we are. Those who do, are worth spending time with and listening to. <br />My two cents, and thank you for the thoughts today. I hope to keep in touch. I'd love to know how you are progressing on assertion. I used to teach teens how to be assertive not aggressive. It's endlessly fascinating to me. The line between fitting in and going along, with not being a doormat.

Love greens, purples and yellows. The Kaffe print border and all the little flower patterns are precious. Something about that yellow gingham print, but I want to snuggle in, on, under or around it.Ajaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15272210468592329126noreply@blogger.com
