I found out something about myself tonight. It was my first class in group therapy (mandated by the court) and when it came to be my turn to speak I was asked what I want to work on thru therapy. I literally had no answer. I have had two years of therapy and with him asking me this question my drive home filled my head with spinning questions and self assurance.
At age 24 I know exactly who I am. I know everything about my past, why I did the things I did, what makes me tick and do the things I do. I know everything there is to know about myself. Most people spend their entire lives trying to figure this out and I am lucky and blessed and thankful that I am in this place in my life and can only better myself from here.
Don't get me wrong, there will always be more earth to uncover. Even if you could dig all the way to the earths core, you would be digging down and deep until you reached the molten hot magma that is truth. But, here is the tricky part. From there you can either easily walk thru the tunnel you have already been thru and see and experience all you already have OR you can keep digging because there is a top either way, there is always more self discovery. I'm sure in the coming years as I strive to find my vices and turn them into virtues I will find more out about myself. But, here... now, I feel complete, in control and satisfied with every aspect of myself (besides of course not having the perfect body that everyone wants haha)
I am Jake. Hear me roar!
