Be Kind To You

How did we become our own worst critics?  The world is tough enough without looking at ourselves with the critical eye that sows thoughts so harsh and unloving that you'd think they were aimed at a mortal enemy. Language in our heads that we would never say to our children, our best friends or any loved one for that matter. 

When is enough, enough?  When are we enough? Somewhere along the lines of development our visions of ourselves became grotesquely askew and beg for a break in that endless cycle of negative toxic thoughts. 

So when do we stop these patterns of self doubt and self abhorrence and start a new conversation in our heads that embraces what we love about ourselves and feel grateful for what is?  

How about today? Focus on being healthy.  Focus on expanding our lives and hearts with people and experiences that will enrich & fulfill.  Walk away from the mirror and base our day on how we're feeling inside.  Appreciate & be a sponge for the beauty around us and the joy of being on this earth. Look to gain knowledge and share a laugh.  Look to share a kindness and sow goodness in the world. Start a new language in our heads that says, " I am blessed to be alive.  I am grateful for today.  I will not waste another second on being unkind to me.  I am more than enough." 

Aim for "Pretty Damn Good" and then move on with our day because we've got other things to think about.
