“And healing doesn’t mean becoming some perfected version of yourself. It means learning to love your messiness, your imperfections, your inner sloth. If we can’t offer ourselves that acceptance, how can we expect the world to?”—-all the yes’s to this, Maureen! Life feels so much more peaceful when I allow myself to be exactly as I am in each moment without judgment, resistance, or expectation. It’s so simple but not always easy! It’s an ongoing practice for me that has become a way of life. The hustle culture shows up overtly in the self-improvement sport for sure! There’s always something more to learn, to achieve, to fix…no, thank you. I stopped buying that narrative and I’m grateful for your post here spreading that message. As we say here in Jamaica, big up! 🇯🇲
