[Canuck Wisdom]

True, but can't forget that it is part of the process of realizing you create you, and you create your self image (and emotional relationship with yourself) and you must discipline/work at creating a self you respect and not just take a ride thinking you are somehow good, or successful.

We have intrinsic value, but you have to apply yourself, even if its disciplining your mind. Easier said than done... but eventually it can become the common practice right?

I guess I am suggesting, even for my own sake only, to get my thoughts down, that it feels better to make yourself than be made by circumstance around you.
