Maybe, I don't have it all together.
That used to bother me so much. I would stress out about the mere fact that yes, I am a human.
Being mortal is something we all deal with. Sure, there are plenty of sucky things about that fact but really, maybe the beautiful outweighs the bad. I know that I am a mess, and I like that. Maybe, I'm just beginning to see my mess as a masterpiece. As a child of God, I am learning to boast in my weakness. I have been won over by God because of His amazing loving-kindness to me, but I am not perfect and that is okay.
This blog is a way for me to release my feels, at times, in hopes of reminding myself this it is completely okay to be imperfect. I am letting go of the stress that has pinned me down for so long.
I know this post is all over the place, but it's 11:50 pm and I'm tired.. and I just.. need to get this off my chest.
You are not perfect and you never will be.
Phew. Now that we have that established, we can go on with our lives and learn to be truly happy.
Blessings ♥
Have you ever read the book "If You Meet the Buddha on the Road, Kill Him!" by Sheldon Kopp? Your post here reminded me of it. Its one of my all time favorite books, deals with the futility of trying to please others or be "productive" as a sense of purpose, and helps to get in touch with your own mortality in a way that no other book will. I highly recommend it.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your recommendation. I am definitely going to check it out.
