growth is measured and reflected
by the strength of one's will and
the steadfast nature of one's
morals, ideals, and belief system.

Over the years my own per
sonalized scenario has both
taken its toll and helped me
grown into the young man you
see in this column every week

1 don't pretend to be the ideal
person because I know I'm not
Who is?

Probably the widest case
scenario of forcing a young
person into individual growth
and independence is divorce
Many things may occur in this
scenario such as: consistent
pre-divorce conflicts, the
divorce itself; numerous ensu
ing custody battles and; con
flicting matters of opinion. The

good luck that enables the situ
ation to live on

Anvhow, if it wasn't for my
parents’ divorce, I would proba
bly be drinking, smoking, and
doing any variety of strange and
wonderful drugs.

My self-image would be hor
rific and I would undoubtedly
be in trouble of one kind or
another for about.90 per cent of
the time. I remain conscious
This is one reason why I accept

descriptions to my friends, 1
guess I did not expect a man to
be as sharp as this man is after
having drank so heavily in the
past

L asked him once why people
drink, and his response was

They drink for something to do
while they're getting drunk”. At
the time | thought it was a little
more than a sarcastic, smart-ass
comment (which he probably
meant it to be), but it was that

little more” that caught my
attention. It revealed to me
something about human nature,
both his‘and humanity in general

Every person has choices to
make, and if they choose the
easy way out (which is proven
time and time again to be a false
statement), so be it. I have cho
sen not to incorporate this stan.
dard into my own humanity

Which brings me to religion
and religious beliefs. Believe
me, the two are very different

I believe that if there is truly
a higher being, and he cares
about my individual actions as a
person, I will act accordingly to
my moral and belief systems
However, as a thinker, I have
found that I very seldom choose
to explore somewhat untouched
avenues of emotion, but it is
possible

Someone once said, “To
know your enemy, you must
know yourself”. Well, I've
found that I am my only enemy,
I create my hardships and I
choose each day's course

This is why I have made such
an effort to get to know myself
(nice to make your acquain-
tance), and I believe it is the first
step towards improving your
own personalized scenario
Either you like what you see
(there is always room for
growth) or you don’t, and you do
something to counter the image

Remember, if you don't see
who you are, others are bound
to see it for you. Think about ut
and you will see Lam correct If
not, I guess I'm crazy. And if
this ts true, who cares”?

Dear Ann Landers: Many of
us were horrified by the tragedy
of a young woman who was
found murdered after she
attempted to drive alone across
several states on her way to col-
lege. Parents could help save the
lives of their college-age daugh-
ters and sons by taking~a few
sensible precautions.

No parent should permit a son
or daughter to drive alone across
the country. There IS safety in
numbers. The psychopaths on the
highways are looking for cars
