"The first step toward change is acceptance. Once you accept yourself, you open the door to change. That's all you have to do. Change is not something you do, its something you allow." (Will Garcia, person with Aids)

Is self-acceptance that easy? I believe this is such a true statement and that with self acceptance, one would find true happiness. However, it is a difficult thing to really accept yourself for you you are. Heck, it's even hard to know who you are and if that is your true self. I ask myslef:

"who are you? Is it who you want to be? Is it who you were meant to be? Are you making God proud? Does God want me to do more than I'm doing? What changes do I need to make to do this? "

And.....

"Who will I be then"
