There is an urge coming from somewhere inside of you, a little voice that starts getting louder, telling you that you have to take back your life from the person who's been running it so ineptly. The life you're living doesn't feel like your own. The person who people take you to be doesn't feel like you. If you feel a longing to give what only you can give and to be known for who you are, and a desire for intimacy and connection, then your given self is beginning to emerge. The given self is what is tapping at your limits in times of personal crisis, from adolescence to late-life, from the start of the spiritual quest to times of divorce and grief, in coming out, and in vocational choices. The given self is behind every fight for the right of each of us to be who we are and is the way to personal and spiritual liberation.
