I've said this to myself over the years since my late teens. I've even used it in counseling sessions with people who were struggling with serious re-evaluations of themselves (as an option, always, not as HERE IS WHAT YOU SHOULD DO CUZ IT'S WHAT I DID). But i've never EVER encountered anybody else who said it to me first.
So. I don't know how prevalent it is out there. I see lots of folks compromising who they are, and very very few taking the pain and staying true to themselves.
