The chip and the anti-chip behavior

As a woman almost in her forties, born in a south American country I may have  "traditional chip" set in - deeply ingrained in the unconscious. And the problem with the unconscious as we know is that it is unconscious. However, I have been growing aware of it.
Aware of it and aware of how easy it is sometimes to act just against the chip. Sometimes one must bounce against extremes  to land softly in the middle , or wherever I want to land.

Wherever I want to land.
