Be gentle with yourself. I am re-minded of a story from my college days, when I would not ask for help from a friend. My mother was my re-minder at the time, simply asking me what I would do if the friend asked me for the same help? "Oh, I would be happy to help. Honored really."This re-minds me often of what I would do for you, but not me. How I would act towards you, but not towards myself. Today I am re-membering to be gentle with myself, and if I am not sure what that looks like or how to do it I simply think of how I would treat you.
Today's journalling question...
In what ways am I more gentle and kind to others than I am to myself?
