In the meantime: Cut yourself some slack.

It’s cold.

I’m tired.

I want to tell try to kick rocks.

I want to tell b eabout it to be about it, without me.

I don’t do those things.

Why?

Because I got thangs to do.

Thangs won’t get done without my try.

Cut yourself some slack, beloveds. There will be days when you just don’t want to. Do so anyway. You got thangs to do.

In the meantime, start being more gentle with yourself. You are not a failure just because things are not working out at the moment. You will get there some kind of way. We all will.

In the meantime, just keep doing the best you can. Don’t live in your feelings. Feelings can lie to us. Feelings, at times, like to go on and on about gloom and doom. I tell feelings to shut up, quite a hit. Stop being soooooooooooooooo dramatic!

He left.

So what?

It didn’t work out the way you thought.

So what?

You weren’t selected.

So what?

You never married.

So what?

You didn’t go there.

So what?

Those things have already happened. What purpose, does it serve, lamenting all the coulda/shoulda/wouldas? They DIDN’T! They DID!

Move on.

Move forward.

Move!
