Ha! What timing! I've just watched a video (Alain de Button) in which he explained his opinion that we are being harmed by the modern idea that we need to do everything right. That in the past, people recognised that everyone was flawed and luck had a large part in what happened to you. He said that now people tend to believe that your outcome depends on how hard you try, and if you fail, it must be because you have done something wrong. This resonates with me. I often think like this.
But who says that there is a right way to do it? How can anyone know how to live your life better than you? Can we start trusting ourselves that we are doing what's right for us?
I find practicing a little gratitude for the little things, helps me realise that I'm doing OK. And doing OK is actually good enough for me.
I'm grateful for the clean water in the glass beside me.
I'm grateful for the fresh air I'm breathing.
I'm grateful to have the time to read your post.
Thanks for the well timed and thought provoking post. I hope you do OK today.
Great response. Things like this prove we're all connected, doesn't it? It's more of me looking back and thinking I could have done this better. It's a bad habit of mine I'm sure if I did it as I saw best i would still be able to find ways I could have done it better.
Is it weird that I'm trying this online option and now looking at how I approach others, even in a grammer form? It's crazy, but particularly true. My father is a English major from a baby boomer.

Beautiful response my friend! 😊 ❤️ *bows in front of greatness* 💡 We have much to learn from you!
You may be more evolved, closer to "self actualization", loss of the ego, etc. Either way, this was amazing to witness/read. I am most grateful! ❤️ Thank you for sharing of yourself with all of us today!
*high fives* 😊 and *hugs* ❤️
@SparkyGizmo
Wow! What praise indeed from someone who most definitely has helped me in finding direction on my path!
As I say, I think it was just lucky timing. But I'm very pleased, nonetheless.
@JustCory88
somehow we all are in the same boat
@JustCory88 it depends on the day.
@admirableTree2399
Yeah, even with me it depends on day, my mood and my emotions.
Doing it right now exactly?
The route we take may not matter
I think when you feel that, you stop adapting and become stagnant. Simply the laws of entropy
Right on what?. Can you be more specific?
Rarely. Lol
i really really do feel like i'm doing it right the more i work on myself, but i know i can't be complete without a partner, so i can't fix my pain.
Definitely not everything! I can do only one thing right at a time!
