~grateful for these words, at the risk of sounding like a total self-help geek, i love this idea of choosing your own adventure:
"you are a guardian of your spirit, mind, and body, the curator of your soul and identity, and the keeper of your dreams. The choice is yours. The rights, privileges, and responsibilities of ownership to you because this is Your Life".
