Baby Steps
Sitting in the sun today, having a conversation with my Mom, I realized truly for the first time ever that I have been trying to change the world. I realized it’s simply impossible to do alone. I guess I thought that if I put my heart into everything 110% that somehow bagillions of people would believe and practice right along with me that everything is possible and the world could be perfect.
Clearly I’ve been biting off way more than I can chew.
Reality Bites.
Although it bites, allowing this reality hit me today, it felt like a thousand-pound weight lifted off me that I have been carrying around for my lifetime. Whew. It feels pretty amazing to allow myself to finally believe that simply doing the best I can is good enough. Understanding the world is never going to be perfect and while it’s great- it sometimes just sucks is actually a relief somehow to me. Moving forward I will take mini bites. Maybe then I’ll actually start making that difference I’ve always wanted, while actually taking care of myself too.
Thanks Mom.
