Today I Will Learn To Reject Shame.

I Saw People Who Were Hostile; They Had Felt So Much Hurt That Hostility Was Their Only Defense Against Being Crushed Again.

Letting Go Means We Stop Trying To Force Outcomes And Make People Behave. It Means We Give Up Resistance To The Way Things Are, For The Moment. It Means We Stop Trying To Do The Impossible-controlling That Which We Cannot-and Instead, Focus On What Is Possible-which Usually Means Taking Care Of Ourselves. And We Do This In Gentleness, Kindness, And Love, As Much As Possible.

Quit Hanging On To The Handrails . . . Let Go. Surrender. Go For The Ride Of Your Life. Do It Every Day.

Gratitude Turns What We Have Into Enough.

We Are More Than Our Problems. Even If Our Problem Is Our Own Behavior, The Problem Is Not Who We Are-it's What We Did. It's Okay To Have Problems. It's Okay To Talk About Problems-at Appropriate Times, And With Safe People. It's Okay To Solve Problems. And We're Okay, Even When We Have, Or Someone We Love Has A Problem. We Don't Have To Forfeit Our Personal Power Or Our Self-esteem. We Have Solved Exactly The Problems We've Needed To Solve To Become Who We Are.
