Permission to be ok

Just found this stuff floating around in the universe.

Never seen it before, and it looks like there's a lot of it -- I can't see where it runs out.

Another weird thing, when you pick up a piece of it, you actually feel less heavy.

I thought I'd pass it around before I forget where I found it, which is apparently everywhere. It's just there for the taking.

Go ahead and take some -- as far as I can tell it's absolutely free.

One on the first things I heard when I started getting sober was "Dare to be mediocre!"

I'm just responsible for being the best me that I can be: I don't have to be the pinnacle of excellence, and I am not doomed to be the most horrible wretch ever to walk the planet. I'm just me, and that's good enough.

It actually took me a long time to give myself that permission...I had to work through some stuff and put down some other baggage

If you see my old 'I am not worthy' or 'this happy stuff feels so weird it's scary' bags around just set fire to them - I don't need them anymore

It's a big deal to get to the point where you allow yourself to be okay.

I'm glad you posted this.
