Choosing how to see
I want to see my story from my own perspective, or from the perspective of someone who is truly wise, not how I imagine others see me, or comparing my choices to the ‘popular wisdom’ or commonly accepted norms and standards. This is a peek into my process of reframing how I choose to see my story.
I did everything in the wrong order
I took the opportunities I had at the time
I have limited myself by avoiding many things
I am learning new things at a pace I can sustain
I haven’t done enough
I have done what I can
I have never worked full-time
I work hard in my home and neighborhood
I am not good enough
I am human
I am childish and idealistic
I am privileged to still have my creativity intact
No-one understands me
I know myself well enough and my God knows me
I don’t like what my life looks like
I see beauty all around me
