Freedom to be me.
     What does that mean?

           It means to be happy, curious, empathetic and open to change.

How do you become yourself?
     Certainly not solely by listening to others.

          Because they see you through their own personal filtered lens.

Can I make my own me?
     Of course I can.

          Scary looking at all the good, the bad and the confusion.

However, the exhilaration of taking control of my actions, my destiny

     Far exceeds the lingering state of unease, unhappiness and inability

         To grow, to reach my potential and to love fully and completely.
