Welcome to the Weekenders
Forgiving Ourselves. I always find that very hard, much harder than forgiving other people in my life.
I read a topic on forgiving yourself and I found this paragraph which I found interesting.
To release that part of your past that you need to forgive, it’s helpful to remember that we’re all doing the best we can in any moment.
If you had known that your action would cause pain to others or yourself, you probably wouldn’t have done it, right?
And even if you knew that you were causing damage at the time, you had no idea how much you would regret it in the future.
Retain what you learned from the event but release everything else.
It went on to say
Appreciate your missteps for what they are—a stepping stone on your path.
I know I’m my worst critic, and I think it’s time to cut some slack, as they say.
This weekend, can we be forgiving to ourselves as much as we are to others and enjoy our Sober weekend?
If this is your first weekend sober, or many, come join us for support and chat...as we know the weekends can be a struggle sometimes. (We’re here all week too!)
