Just a friendly reminder that it’s the messy par

Just a friendly reminder that it’s the messy parts that make you lovable. It’s the flaws you have that make you relatable. No one wants to be in a relationship with perfection because goodness knows, none of us are perfect. We want friends who understand our struggles. We want partners who accept us even on our worst days. We want to be loved for who we really are, even though we know we’re not perfect. So don’t try to be what you’re not. Just let others see the whole you-even the messy parts. Because they’re going to love you even more for it. #loveyourself #authenticallyyou #beyou #stoptryingtobeperfect #selfcompassion #authenticity

Easier said than done in a world that is programme

Easier said than done in a world that is programmed to make us think we have to live certain way, act a certain way, and look a certain way. But when you follow the guidelines that society has set for you, you are letting *other* people tell you who to be and what you’re worth. The problem is, try as hard as you can, you’re never going to measure up because these are idealized standards of living. No one can live up to something as false and fake as what we sometimes *think* we are supposed to be like. So, if you’re not measuring up to what you think others want you to be, what are you going to do? Hide your shortcomings. Hide your weaknesses. Hide who you truly are because you don’t want them to “find you out.” Don’t hide who you are! It’s too good to be hidden. We all need you. And it’s your shortcomings and weaknesses that make you someone that others can connect with. Pay attention to the ways you are living that are simply because that’s what you *think* you are “supposed to do” or “supposed to look like.” Just be YOU.

Instead of setting a list of New Year’s Resoluti

Instead of setting a list of New Year’s Resolutions for myself, I pick a “theme” for the year, usually just one word, and work on that. I put a lot of thought, and even prayer, into picking my word and I try to reflect back on it frequently throughout the year to see how I’m doing. This year I wanted to focus on more fully accepting people where they are at in their lives, and doing the same for myself-accepting me even when I fall short of where I wish I was. But the word “accept” didn’t feel strong enough to encompass the level of love I wanted to devote to this. I also thought about embrace-embracing others as they are. Embracing myself, embracing life. Also good. But in the end, I decided on “cherish.” To hold as dear; to embrace with affection; to foster, and encourage growth. Love it. This year I’m working on cherishing the goodness of the people in my life. I’m working on cherishing the goodness in myself. And I’m working on cherishing the life that I’m living. I’d love to hear what your focus is going to be on this year. Do you have a word? A theme? A goal that matters to you?

I’m a goal-oriented person. And that’s an unde

I’m a goal-oriented person. And that’s an understatement. I love setting goals, I’m a planner junkie, and checking things off a to do list makes me 😍. So this time of year definitely has me thinking about goals and I love it. What I DON’T love is the mindset that floats around this time of year that you need a total overhaul in the new year. Maybe it’s major weight loss, large, impractical aspirations to become a “new you,” or a determination to whip yourself into shape. These ideas say that who you are right now is not good enough. That’s not true. Who you are is incredible. You make a difference in many people’s lives, just as you are. You are special and needed. So set a goal or two for the new year if you want to (I do-I’ll share mine this week) but remember that you don’t need an overhaul to be a good and wonderful person. You are more than enough just as you are.
