What do I want?

"Choose a keyword for yourself, some word or phrase that really captures the spirit of that for which you are longing. It's probably hidden deep in the inner world, underneath all of the seemingly countless other desires and words that have been programmed in as acceptable, proper desires. It's a longing that has been there a long time, a very long time. It was probably there in early childhood. It was with you in adolescence. It is still there. But what do you call it? What is that single word or phrase that draws you back to that felt longing."

I'm still figuring out my word. Do you have one?

"All endeavor calls for the ability to tramp the last mile, shape the last plan, endure the last hours toil. The fight to the finish spirit is the one... characteristic we must posses if we are to face the future as finishers."

[Personal] Integrity.

To be completely and fully myself, to not compromise for any social structure, nor arbitrary rule, nor judge of man.

It's what I've always wanted. I am God, and I've only ever had problems when I've doubted myself.

Hard to choose between: Passion, Connection or Understanding.

Can I have 3?
No, just the one?

OK, it has to be Understanding as first, then the other 2 will follow automatically.

How? Well, if I have Understanding, then I understand myself and what I want so my life can be filled with Passion.

And if I have Understanding, I can connect deeply with others.
