Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently! Henry Ford
Had me another lie in, thank you very much, 7.45am might not
seem like one to most but for me it’s a good extra 2 hours.
This is what yesterday looked like;Dinner 12pp tea, st agur chicken, beetroot falafel (from Waitrose, they were delicious, 4 for 6pp already eaten one!) & roast veg
Tea went a bit astray -
16pp! Crust of bread (6pp) 4 x ryvita (4pp) garlic butter (2pp) StAgur
Cheese (4pp)
Where’s that come from ay? Well last night we were
watching tv and I had my glass of wine in my hand, mom and I were chatting and reminiscing,
we were watching something with young folk in anyways and I remarked that I
remember when I was younger never feeling good enough, I always felt that I
could look that bit better, or be that bit smarter, or fit in that little bit
more, or earn that bit more, or try that bit harder. Yet my mom had always told me I was good
enough and perfect as I was, so where did those thoughts come from?! By my mid 20’s I started reading lots of books
to try and understand myself and what made tick and I think by the time I hit
my 30’s I was starting to get there, and the last 5 years I’ve got there, I’ve
realised “I’ll do”, actually I’ll more than do, I’m perfect at being me and
others seem to agree! What I weigh doesn’t
seem to be an issue for any of my family, friends or members and to be honest
if it is, I’ve realised that’s their problem not mine! I’ve realised it’s okay not to be like everyone
else, but to be me, I’m the female who’s always got up early in the morning and
gone to bed early at night, I’ve never wanted to be a party animal, clubber or
pub frequenter. I’m happy doing what I
do, and it’s okay to flit from one passion, hobby or pastime to another, as
long as it isn’t hurting anyone.
Yep I’ve learnt from all that reading that there wasn’t
anything wrong with me to start, nothing to fix, nothing to change, the only
thing I needed to do was accept who I was and go with the flow!
How about you? Are
you still trying to fit in, to impress, to be someone you think you should be?
If so, then ask yourself why, no one else can be YOU and
you are already fantastic so get happy with that person you see in the mirror
and go have a Super Saturday, because you’re amazing!
