Being true to oneself takes courage and is liberating. I was watching an Oprah show where she said that unless we are true to ourselves, we will never grow into the fullness of our being. How true. For years, I spent time in Corporate America working in a high-rise skyscraper which was beautiful at night when I would look out of the window, and see the lights of the surrounding buildings illuminating the sky, but my career was suppressing my soul; so, I left after 23 years into the unknown. I finally set myself free to reclaim my soul.

I am sharing a few quotes that I found inspiring:

Any life, no matter how long and complex it may be, is made up of a single moment–the moment in which a man finds out, once and for all, who he is.–Jorge Luis Borges
