We are all insecure. Everyone of us. Because of our fears we often set high standards for others. We require them to behave a certain way, look a certain way. This way being our ideal view of ourselves. I am learning that all I want from others I already have. I do not need others to make me happy, what I need to be happy is already in me. These are not my own ideas – I am reading a book by Byron Katie titled ‘Question your thinking, change the world’. I am questioning my thinking. My world is changing.

I am enough I am what I am, made and molded by woman and man. All I require, everything I desire, all that I admire, fear and despise, packed into me whole and precise. All I see in others is me. I am them, they are I, all I know and see comes from me. I am enough. I am smart. I am good. I am sad, mad and occationaly bad. I am me, I am everything to me you see. I am whole, fully in control. I set the course, everthing I endorse dictates the pace of this human's race. You are me and I am you, what applies to me is in you too. I am enough. I am god. I decide my life. I pick my level of strife! It is not odd but perfectly humane, to not know we are all on the same plane. You and I we are enough. We are all we need, know that when we meet.
