“Naturally, we will make mistakes and fail from time to time… We do not have to shame ourselves.” — The Language of Letting Go

This morning, in discussing with a friend how we sometimes make resolutions that we fail to stick with, I said “Sometimes we’re so hard on ourselves we make it impossible to be happy.” 

I realize that it’s also true that sometimes I’m so hard on others that I make it impossible for me, or them, to be happy. So today I’ll stop being so hard on me and everyone else. Instead, I’ll just lighten up and be grateful for the good stuff. That way, i can stay in a place where ILML!
