An astounding level of self-awareness.

Introvert? Introspect? Egocentric? I think about myself a lot, and I understand why I do things.
I know I hate feeling that other people a concluding that I'm immature, privileged or selfish.

What I've learned about integrity is that intentions are nowhere near enough. No one is going to know what you felt guilty about or what was really important to you. They're only going to know what you did. Since we're called to be an important mineral in the world, we have to look like it. I think a lot about how my life looks to people who don't believe in what I did and don't see it as a sacrifice, let alone appreciate it. It takes faith to a different place.
