Self Aware

I think it is really important to be self aware. In order to achieve this I think that I should write down thoughts like this as soon as I can for documentation. I forget who I am alot, what about the way I think and go about things that makes me unique. I think that things that I get distracted from my awareness with trying to adapt to things like relationships, schoolwork, and trying to balance the different aspects of my life. I want to keep a log of relavent thoughts and observations

Inspiring

As I continue reading Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali I continue to feel so inspired. I love how she was so oppressed and found the courage to go outside of her comfort zone and to work so hard to achieve her goals of being independent and still moral. I think it is really ironic because the people who were trying to oppress her so much ended up being the factor that motivated her to get out of her culture and to learn about new ones. I think it was also great how after she settled in Holland and got a job and started living more comfortably that she continued with her education and was always inspired to learn more. I want to be more like her.
