I keep seeing memes, posters, and little notes about embracing who you are everywhere. While I do not advocate hating yourself, finding who you are today unacceptable is healthy. "You get to choose the man you want to be," I always tell my children. While neither my 8-year-old nor 6-year-old is the man I want them to be today, I feel they will grow into the men I want them to be. Life is a journey, and if we "embrace," "accept," or even fully love who we are today, there is no room for growth.
