It's ok to be me

I have just read a post from a friend of mine who talked about turning 40 this year and accepting who we are.
This really resonated with me. I seemed to have spent my life trying to be ‘this’ or look like ‘that’. What’s wrong with just being me? To be honest sometimes Im not sure who me is 😉
I know I am not alone when I think that I am not good enough, havent done enough etc. WHo says? Who makes the rules? Lets make up our own rules.
Time and time again people say to me just be kinder to yourself. I am terrible at focusing on what I haven’t achieved instead on what i have. Maybe this is a human trait?
I have always written a journal. I find it a great way of off loading my daily rantings!! I have started to include the things I have done well, even if its a small thing. Life is just too short to beat myself up about things I haven’t done or mistakes that I have made. So what? Who cares?
Each day is a new day. I choose to learn by my mistakes. I try and do the right thing and treat people the way i want to be treated and now its time to treat myself like that too.
Give yourself a hug today because you are AMAZING
