"You're only as tall as your heart will let you be, and you're only as small as the world will make you seem. When the going gets rough and you feel like you will fall, just look on the bright side: you're roughly six feet tall." ~Never Shout Never, On the Brightside

My shrink told me...
...that I will end up going to my grave never being sure of myself, and that I should just accept that. What do you think?
I think everyone is like that. I think the whole growing up thing is just accepting it and living with it, maybe? But just because you are unsure doesn't necessarily equal WRONG, though. I always thought I would reach some place where I was sure about everything, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't exist. Still, there's TIME. Maybe when we're about 80. Then again, maybe when you're 80, it's not that you're sure so much as you don't care or MAYBE you realize that there is rarely ONLY one right decision to have, so being sure is not really all that important for most decisions you make...? I am so INSPIRED by your post, I am going to email you about it.
I'm glad I inspired you. I'll tell you more about my discussion with my ex-therapist, if you want. It was a great discussion. I *heart* my therapist. Especially when I found out she's MY AGE exactly. :)
