word of the day!

SELF-DETERMINATION
self-de·ter·mi·na·tion, n.
-Determination of one's own fate or course of action without compulsion; free will.
-The capacity to manage one's own affairs, make one's own judgments, and provide for oneself.

as someone who values independence, i must say that this is one of my very favorite words in the english language. it kicks me in the pants whenever i need a little boost! i'm all about it.
