真正的自我 从不会被弄丢

Finding yourself" is not really how it works.

You aren't a ten-dollar bill in last winter's coat pocket.

You are also not lost.

Your true self is right there,

buried under cultural conditioning ,

other people's opinions,

and inaccurate conclusions you drew as a kid

that became your beliefs about who you are.

"Finding yourself" is actually returning to yourself.

An unlearning, an excavation , a remembering who you were

before the world got its hands on you.
