It is anything but ‘selfish’ to ask ourself the open question 'Who am I?' - to search out, perhaps rediscover, and nurture our core values. In fact, American educator Parker J. Palmer suggests: “The most practical thing we can achieve in any kind of work is insight into what is happening inside of us as we do it. The more familiar we are with our inner terrain, the more surefooted our (work) – and living – becomes."
"When we are rooted in true self, we can act in ways that are life-giving for us and all whose lives we touch. Whatever we do to care for true self is, in the long run, a gift to the world.”
