You know inside who you are. In your quietest, deepest center, you have a knowing. That knowing is the only polestar you need.

I realized that you never had someone like me in your life. You were just a scared teenager trying to find your way in the most unlikely of circumstances. But even then, even when you were still learning, still wondering, still trying to figure things out, you knew. You knew who you were. You knew what you were.
