Have you ever found yourself defining yourself with your problems?
It's easy to do. When problems surround us we think about our life in the context of those problems. But they don't need to define us. We are not our problems. We are not the net result of too much happening or unsolved mysteries. We are much more than that.
Our problems don't define us -- our solutions do.
And even then, our solutions only send signals for who we are. We are so much deeper - our character, our beliefs, our emotions, our loves...we are so much more than what we do.
And far more than our problems would indicate.
Stay centered, stay focused, create the you that you want to be -- and solve one problem at a time.
