text: i am me in all the world there is no one else exactly like me everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because i alone chose it i own everything about me my body my feelings my mouth my voice all my actions whether they be to others or myself i own my fantasies my dreams my hopes my fears i own my triumphs and successes all my failures and mistakes because i own all of me i can become intimately acquainted with me by so doing i can love me and be friendly with all my parts i know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me and other aspects that i do not know but as long as i am friendly and loving to myself i can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me however i look and sound whatever i say and do and whatever i think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me if later some parts of how i looked sounded thought and felt turn out to be unfitting i can discard that which is unfitting keep the rest and invent something new for that which i discarded i can see hear feel think say and do i have the tools to survive to be close to others to be productive and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me i own me and therefore i can engineer me i am me and i am okay
