I couldn't agree anymore with this post Jeff! I started deprogramming myself through the process of daily meditation for an hour a day, every morning. And I am proud to say that 8 years of doing this daily is 99.9% responsible for knowing Who I Am today and the very all-around selective lifestyle that I live as it pertains to my interaction with all sorts of nouns lol. If anyone is interested on starting the same practice, I highly recommend researching Bill Harris of CenterPointe.. Great folks over there! Great post and I hope your influence is enough to send a few more Steemians on this journey of rediscovering your true self and living a MUCH BETTER and at-peace life as a result. I do warn you, the process can be a bit up and down emotionally because its never fun to find out for the first time that one is 100% responsible for the things one attracts into one's life.. It's a shocking and hard pill to swallow at first but once you do, true liberation shows up almost immediately after that acceptance stage. Resteemed!
