Accept yourself, but don't stop growing!

in #philosophy8 years ago

source


I have come a long way in how I view myself. While some days I don't like myself momentarily for mistakes I make, I have ultimately learned to accept myself and be at peace with who I am. I know I have a lot I need to work on as a person, and that I have a lot of growing to do, but I accept myself and the journey I am on!

Yes, never stop! 😊

Accept yourself for who you are today. Love that person. Then grow some and repeat the process.

@uglysweater, I really appreciated the following line.

While some days I don't like myself momentarily for mistakes I make, I have ultimately learned to accept myself and be at peace with who I am.

I believe that there is a difference between being content with who you are versus what you do.

Who I am needs to be bigger than the actions of the day or those pesky mistakes. Who I am drives my purpose in life.

My faith tells me that I am a new creation, and I need to live that way even though the old man keeps popping up.

I couldn't agree more! 😊
