Cancer

I am driven by a higher purpose than most people. I have a deeply-rooted desire to facilitate peacefulness in the world. Whether through subtle interactions with love ones, or through getting involved in social causes, it is important for me to influence the world.

I am driven by a desire to encourage others to think about the positive side of things instead of focusing on the negative. The reason my unconscious is consumed by this might stem from an innate fear of war and turmoil. Thus, to avoid that uncomfortable place, my unconscious seeks out the peace in the environment.

The thing that underlies this unconscious drive is a deep respect for humankind. I care about the future of the world, even beyond my own involvement in it. As a result, my personal integrity acts as a surrogate for my deeper drive towards peace and guides me in daily life towards decisions that are respectful toward myself and others.

I feel a level of comfort with myself and with my surroundings that many people lack, and may have gained me a reputation for kindness and personal integrity. I can be a role model for others who'd like to be as driven by the same high ideals as I seem to be. While I may be comfortable and have nice things, ambition and financial gain probably aren't the things that drive me most. I am more likely lead by a desire to live by my own high personal standards and moral code.

I tend to be an independent thinker. I do not shy away from life's big questions. I foster a kind of fearlessness that can continually enrich my life.

I also am people-smart. I have the ability to read people and react accordingly.

"This is the way I am, no one said you have to like it.
This is the way I jam, I won't hide it.
So come and take my hand,
Take it or leave it.
Cause this is the way I am,
I am who I am
and I like it."
