Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall...

My boundaries will give me a pretty clear indication of how I appraise my self-worth.  My self-concept becomes less abstract and more concrete when I look into the mirror of my boundaries.  Everyone has boundaries.  It's where those boundaries are set, which reflect my core values and self-concept.  Are my boundaries reflective of my consciously constructed values?

A helpful tool in self-examination is doing an inventory surrounding my core values by taking cues from where I set my boundaries; regarding how I use my time, money and words, on a day-to-day basis.  I'm wise to not expect perfection, but am also empowered as I gain awareness of where I may make progress.

Boundaries, Boundaries, wherefore art thou boundaries?
