I'm reading this really incredibly book called, 'The Dance,' and the part I just read last night talks about self-acceptance and really embracing who we are made to be. It was exactly what I was thinking about last night.
"The question is not why are we so infrequently the people we really want to be. The question is why do we so infrequently want to be the people we really are.
Because you have no faith that who you are is enough. But it is... who you really are is enough."
That is such a simple idea, but something we so rarely understand and accept. I think if we keep reminding ourselves of this basic fact - that who we really are is enough - then we will be a much happier world.

because who we are really is enough. not enough in the sense that we shouldn't strive to be more. but enough in the sense that we should be satisfied with where we are, respecting that life is a journey...
