"Don't be too hard on yourself. There are plenty of people willing to do that for you. Love yourself and be proud of everything that you do. Even mistakes mean you're trying." (Susan Gale). I just think that we need to read things like this every single day, meditated about them, and pay attention to the truth in these words. So many people are hard on us, but often we are hardest on ourselves. We don't feel that we give enough as partners, wives, husbands, parents, employees, students, neighbors. There is always something more that we could or should be doing. Well, if we can start with ourselves, and really know that we do enough, we are enough, we give enough. Be gentle and loving with yourself. Happiness in life does not come from external forces, it comes from within.
