"..awakening from an inauthentic life..." - Gloria Steinem
I listened to a CD set called I Believe that is based on a PBS program. It was great because it allowed people of all walks of life to tell us what they genuinely believed. They were restrained from telling the audience what they did not believe.
The line above was a part of a segment that Gloria recorded. I just loved the combination of words.
Recently I have been working on creating a table of contents for an autobiography called Un-Examined Life. Each day I go though my outline and add a few lines that will fill a page or a chapter. In a sense I am awakening in order to write this book.
The audience? Me and my children. If no one else reads it then it would be OK with me. It is a gift to give them the answers to why I made the choices throughout my life. To examine my choices and determine if they were consistent with who I am. In my opinion this is a difficult level to reach.
Today's question is:
"Are you living an authentic life?"
