So I was a loser…
Notorious for setting goals, my best friends asked me what mine were for 2025. I said I only had one:
Make peace with myself; wholly, fully, and FINALLY accept myself for everything I am worth.
And to feel that I am worth a lot.
It is tremendously easy to be unkind to yourself, picking at your own flaws like hungry birds for food.
The real challenge is acceptance.
I know that, I do. Really!
So here’s me trying to put my knowledge into practice.
I invite you to walk with me, share a hike on the path of Life that I have lovingly added dozens of poppies to – you know, to try and brighten every day, albeit just a little.
After all:
“You know that life could be amazing, look at the roses poppies in the pavement”
