You said you were worried about backsliding. Do you know what you want your life to look like? Who you want to be? What you want to be remembered for? I don't know. Maybe it's a ridiculous question, but it feels somewhat important.
I mean, for instance, me? I've always wanted to be a Jedi. I've known I want to serve the light when and where I can. Compassion is something I've always valued. I know that I've got the capacity to act from Darkness. I get angry more often than I'd like to admit to. But knowing who I want to be, has helped me stay on track. Knowing that putting other beings before myself is something that I value helps me check myself.
