ALWAYS CHOOSE KINDNESS
Forgiveness is a gift we give NEED to give to ourselves.
If you had a friend who was suffering you would probably move mountains for your friend. But would you do the same for yourself?
A lot of us have this problem. We are so critical of ourselves. We beat ourselves up for making mistakes. We are so hard on ourselves.
I had a friend with cancer I wanted to do anything and everything I could to ease his pain. If he made mistakes in life I forgave him right there and then.
Many times in life I could not forgive myself. I realized recently to be able to move forward in life I needed to release myself from this pain of regret.
I may be a critical person. I am hard on myself.
But my message must be clear... choose kindness and forgiveness. Forgiveness is a gift we give ourselves.
love you all
