"He who trims himself to suit everyone will soon whittle himself away." - Raymond Hull

I was once a plain peice of wood. And those around me have carved me into who I am today. I don't feel as if I am being whittled away anymore. There have been times that I have felt like if I did ONE more thing for someone else then I would be giving more than what I had to offer, and I would no longer be me. I have felt as if someone wanted to mold me or carve me into something I am not. I resisted... and kept my shape. My inner core, when I am strong in mind, keeps me strong in body. It isn't easy to do when you feel weak. And that is when people are most likely to carve away at you more... when you are weak. Keeping myself strong in mind requires me to keep my body strong. They intertwine with each other... it is all connected.
