Post 12: theme of my life

So far the theme of my life could be summed up as learning how to develop myself as an individual followed by learning how to not become attached to the way i taught myself to think. When I was growing up i was constantly seeking validation from friends and family to know that what i was doing was right and good. I slowly built a mosaic of my personality and being from all my experiences and all the interactions I've had so far. Eventually, I realized that all these people I was seeking guidance from, were offering it from their own limited experiences and offering advice they had also received from other people. This was the point I began seeing that asking someone else for guidance in my journey was almost the blind leading the blind. When I realized that no one truly knows exactly what is going on, all i could do was try and be sure that i didn't get too caught up in this mental delusion of "knowing" while learning how to coexist with these developed thought patterns that think they do.
