The Greatest Gift Is You

I have always wanted things to be without problems and errors and wondered why I would get so frustrated when things didn’t go my way. I have learned the hard way by trying to fight the laws of the universe with my idealistic approach to life. This has caused me so much anger and hopelessness that If I could measure, it would be pretty embarrassing to see what a waste of energy and how futile my efforts were. I am ok with my past and have made peace with what it was and how it has been a tough way to live. I know just for now that I do not have to live in such a narrow mindset that keeps me in the emotional turmoil of old learned behavior. I thought it worked that way, and boy, was I wrong in this explosion to the wisdom of self-love in recovery. When I accept things the way they are I feel so much gratitude for all the idiosyncrasies that pervade in my life. When I bounce joyfully through everything that comes my way, my self-worth rises, and I am attractive to others who may need hope. A false projection of an image that is not authentic attracts people to show you that it’s time to wake up. These hard-earned realities are the backbone of the change we have been avoiding for years. If we can be honest with ourselves about how our behavior is being perceived by others, then we have a chance to go deeper into looking at the root of our dilemma. It may not be the easiest thing we do but it can be the most loving one. You are worthy of this compassion and just because you fall short sometimes makes you human and special. Your vibes are changing always, and remember to enjoy yourself, for it’s your time to shine through and make your creative mark of change in this special place of the present.
