Taking Stock

In our rapidly evolving and complicated society that is dominated by technology, knowledge of oneself is waning and simple values which should be guiding daily life are becoming a thing of the past. How well do you know yourself? Do you know what your values are? Are you a person with independent convictions or are you someone who jumps on the proverbial "bandwagon?" Regardless of what you believe your viewpoint may be, journaling can be a tremendous tool in discovering the person you really are. However, taking the initiative, is for many of us, a daunting task. By providing some basic topics as prompts, the door is opened for you to learn about yourself in ways you never imagined. These prompts include basic beliefs you possess, to your everyday actions, to your observations of others, which invite you to open your mind, heart and soul and express yourself in a way you never expected you would. Consider these suggestions as an open invitation to find your values and know yourself.
