How do we forgive ourselves
for all of the things
we did not become?

At the risk of starting an earworm “Let It Go” – we forgive ourselves for far less, isn’t it time to let go of the bigger things too? How light our shoulders would feel…how easily we would smile at a passing wonder…
Yes, little things, big things. Only to just do it.
by celebrating all that we did become.
Yes.
This. Exactly this.
Ah, now I understand, Grasshopper.

Ah,David, how could you have known…that this is just what I needed today? Thank you…
🙂 So glad to hear this Bonnie.
What’s to forgive? We live and do what we can and then we die.
There you have it…in black and white.
When? Preferably on a Monday.
Yes, always on Monday. Fresh beginnings…
I have to agree with Mimi….just let is go… Life is so much easier
If only now, to execute.
