So often we hear about people going off to "find themselves", or feeling lost and wanting to find them-self. I used to think this way until I realized I will be going around that merry go round for quite some time. I don't think it's so much about "finding" yourself, but more about Creating yourself.

To create yourself, you first have to be honest with yourself about who/what kind of person you currently are. Then you have to think of what your Ideal person would be, and become that. What is important to you? What makes a good person in your eyes? In order to create ourselves, we must see things outside of our own little perspective. I'm sure you can name one thing you like about every person you hang around with, everyone has something you can admire. Choose bits of qualities from the people you surround yourself with ( or even people outside your circle ), and add those things into your ideal (or future ) self. It takes time to create ourselves, but it's a fun journey and a never ending one. Dream up your ideal self and become just that.
