My dad's friend stopped me on the street yesterday and told me I didn't know how I was. He said it took time to realize your own potential and that everything is eventual.

But I think I know myself very well. I know my likes, dislikes, interests, peeves, sexual preferences, occupational possibilities, what I look for in friends and significant others. Isn't that enough?

I've already been through several struggles, and I'm happy now, whether I do or don't know what I am. I like being me.

Why is there such heavy emphasis on "finding yourself". Sh*t, you're going to die one day anyway, so what's the difference. Why can't people just be satisfied being who they are, and just living with that.

On the other hand, if you're not happy being you, or what you doing, keep seaching, I guess. But just remember not to waste your time thinking and wondering, because one day you won't wake up... and in that case, is finding yourself THAT important?
