from the ideas and traditions of others.

Adding one to my count of days, or postponing

touch a new fear, a new anger,
and with focused intent and good fortune,
find an ample measure of my own joy.

- the Jodie Foster movie Contact (1997)

I am the owner of my choices.
I am the source for the perspectives I choose to hold...
regardless of how aware I am of why or how I come to possess
that particular perspective.

I will look into that mirror little bits at a time.
SEE and ACT. SEE what I can bear to see and ACT upon what I am able.
This is the heart of a gentle invitation to personal responsibility.
- Mary Anne Radmacher
