How do I forgive myself?
I believe I am having a problem with that, even though yesterday,
I wrote a nice little passage about it. ( my Angels must have written it
instead of me! ha)
The bottom line is to let go. That's all I can do. Live and let God.
Sometimes I also wish for what was, or what could have been, or what SHOULD have
been..and I beat myself up over it. I then get sort of depressed.. because I'm comparing my life that was ..to what it is now.
--I have to remind myself to stop making comparisons, for therein, lies madness.
How do I trust myself?
Whenever something bugs me, i have the tendency to analyze it, mull it over and then
over-analyze it to death! Then, I let it 'sit'" on the back burner for a bit..and approach it again. If I'm still stuck, I go down deep within ..and more often that not, there will
be that quiet little stillness. And it will tell me what I most need to know.
The stillness is always with us..but will we listen? (Aye, there's the rub).
How do I stand up for myself?
Sometimes, this is hard to do..especially when the people around you (family, friends
or whatnot), still see you as you were...and may judge you on your past decisions.
I stand up for myself by never turning my back on faith and hope. I may have moments
of wavering, but like the stillness, faith is always with me.
It's sort of like wading through a turbulent stream-- you have to watch out for the
sharp stones, while at the same time, you need to keep your balance, lest the rushing
current overtake you.
And through it all, I must needs remember."There but for the Grace of God, go I."
