you owe it

Well, let's try my first post in English. Excuse me -in advance- for the misunderstandings it can bring up.

I was thinking...don't get me wrong this is not, for sure, a conclusion of life. But... I was thinking about how everyday is about being faithful to yourself as you are.

When we're children we don't have precisely a definite shape:
we usually import from our parents words, thoughts, way of acting, etc. 
we copy our siblings in what we like of them,
we highlight our friends virtudes and we try to imitate them,
basically we have no strong personality at all.

And then, you grow up. You first think about changing the world and being unique, being a hero.
Next step, some ideas go round in your mind but still you need to be unique.
After a certain time, life gives you presents and gifts but gives you shits and awful feelings as well.
Nevertheless, you still are you. Once you've lived those feelings by your own, you don't imitate anymore, you don't look at others to copy cool things. 
You just stand up by yourself. So, you start to live. You begin to think that's your story and that you're you after all: good and evil, happiness and anguish, travel and stays, new life and death, some breaks up and some hooking.
So that's all you have to do when living: to get to know yourself. In the meanwhile you ought to be faithful to yourself. 
I'm not talking about not changing your defects and weaknesses, I'm just talking about essence. So when you turn back to give a look, you'll feel done.

And no, you'll never feel that way but at least we can try it.
