Listen to your heart. Do what you can and what feels right in this moment. Let the rest go. Start fresh and don’t beat yourself up for what you have no control over now. Trust yourself. Forgive. Try. ❤️ love to you and may you experience peace ☮️ today

Good morning!

Your art is back! I'm so glad. You could do one of Hiba's "What is this?" I give up. Clouds?

I am really struck by every word you've written. You named it - this is my struggle too. I want to bullet every phrase, and hang it up in plain sight. My favorite:

"don’t beat yourself up for what you have no control over now"

How? So difficult after a lifetime. What did someone post yesterday... My memory is so bad.

That I was confusing my ability to function with my worth. Hmmm.

Our forum has some "brilliant" gems. I'm trying to learn. It's hard.

Good morning and peace to you Nothing_but-pain! It’s good to ‘see’ you! Yeah we should not beat ourselves up ... if a friend made a mistake would we want them to dwell on and keep feeling badly ? No so let’s be that friend to ourselves. So let’s just keep in mind how we treat a friend and be that for ourselves. That is our new task.

My memory is bad too. It is hard sometimes but we are learning. And we may forget but we get back on track.

Lately I've noticed my memory is bad aswell, like, I couldn't even remember someone's face whom I saw like a couple of days back..not dwelling on it though, I wouldn't mind forgetting some of my past hopefully..❤️

I relate to what you said; confusing my ability to function with my worth..I'f I'm on track, confidence within myself is what I'm lacking and may be the cause along with everything else...

Hugs dear one. Your post is what I needed to hear. All week I've had a horrible migraine/tension headache (?)... stressing about work (others performance, its impacts on me.My boss isn't upset with me... still can't let it go). Being haunted by the pass a lot more... which is difficult & hard to trust others to discuss with. Going to try to stay in the moment, the best I can. Lots of love...

Yes I hear you it can be hard I have something coming up and something I wish I’d done to prepare but now is now and let’s try to make the best of it and take care of our hearts and minds and breathe in the beautiful peace in the new and breathe out all the old feeling goodness tun through our body Things tend to fall into place. Hugs
