Rigourous honesty...

I can

find this

really hard

at times

-especially when

I do

not want

to

-admitt my

faults

-take responsibility

-be accountable...

I am

referring to

myself

-more then

others...

Sure I

can with-hold

honesty

-due to

fears of

rejection

-fear of

anger

-fear of

acceptence...

However

-some things

are nobodies

business

-many can

not or

do not

want to

understand...

I try

to be

honest with

people

-as best

as I

can...

It is

myself

-that requires

total honesty...

If I

deny what

I need

to address

-it only

limits me...

The truth

will set

me free

-and that

takes

rigourous honesty...

It can

seem harsh

-so gentleness

is required

-acceptance without

condemnation...

I want

to be

free

-from ways

of thinking

-acting

-behaving...

Which only

stops my

healing

-a journey

I choose

on purpose...

There is always Hope!  I look at what I need to change & I also look at the progress I have made.  I am taking baby steps-some things will not change overnight, but I can try my best each day & pat myself on the back for my efforts.

You Are Worth So Much!

God Bless
