self created...

... is what I am.

This means that I choose to walk in awareness, to live consciously, instead of  on auto-pilot. This means that I don't accept anything or what anyone says to be true, unless I have analysed it, tested it, argued it and felt it as true or relevant for myself.

I don't blindly follow the ways of the masses, unless I find that following paints a picture of who I choose to be. It also entails that I think for myself. Yes, you heard me. I. Think. For. Myself. I don't base anything I do on the findings or consequences true for someone else. It's more work, but a lot more rewarding. Through all of this I will inevitably subject myself to the ridicule and criticism of others.

The alternative is unbearable though.

What is the alternative you may ask?
Not being me.
Not being true to me, to who I choose to be.
Not claiming my gift of free choice and the ultimate power: power of self.

So yes, I am self created. No, I am not perfect, but I choose to live my life this way and I do my best. You don't have to accept me for this.

All I would request is that before you ridicule, criticize or argue, investigate for yourself instead of simply huffing and puffing because of some principle you've adopted and refuse to let go of.
