I need to forgive myself for:
- Failing to turn my computer-related degree into a high-paying career in technology
- Not having the wherewithal to lose weight and keep it off
- Eating when I'm stressed out or when I feel inadequate
- Being too harsh with The Fiance when what I really want to do is speak the truth in love
- Not being outgoing enough
- Being more of a follower instead of a leader
- Not being pretty enough
- Being the kind of girl who always looks like the "Before" picture and never the "After"
- Not writing enough . . . or ever
- Not making enough money
- Not spending the money I have wisely.
- Consistently failing to live up to my potential.
This may seem like a lot of things for which I need to forgive myself but it's really only one thing: I need to forgive myself for not being perfect.

That moved me. Pert near made me bawl. If I had been anywhere near you when you compiled that list, I would have hugged you silly before you could finish it.
This 30 Days of Truth thing can be powerful stuff.
"I need to forgive myself for not being perfect." AMEN!
