While listening to others in group session today, I realised something quite profound. All of the people in our circle are really good at giving to others. Helping others. Respecting others.
What we fail at is being good to ourselves. Kind to ourselves. Respecting ourselves.
Why is it easier to give what we can't give to ourselves? Unconditional love and understanding.

Why
The word 'why' doesn't seem intimidating on its own. Just three letters, asking a question. But the 'why' questions can be very heavy.
Questions like: "Why am I not feeling any better?"; "Why aren't I smarter/cuter/richer?"; "Why can't I or didn't I make better decisions?"
These questions imply self-guilt. An inability to change. It's the word that gets people stuck... stuck in the past and unable to move forward.
But how can I change the 'whys' in my life, so I can move forward?
