We are so hard on ourselves. Critical. Judgmental.
 
Never ever ever ever good enough.
 
Even when we have managed our way through another day, dressed ourselves, fed ourselves, made it from a to b and back again, kept it together enough to be considered a functioning human being, maybe even sharing a kind word or two along the way.
 
And yet, it is never ever ever ever enough.
 
You are in much better shape than you are giving yourself credit for.
 
Even on the bad days.
 
Give yourself a break.
