Let It Go

I need to forgive myself for not living up to unreasonable expectations.

I need to forgive myself for not being my ideal self today.

I need to forgive myself for making mistakes and being human.

I need to forgive myself for getting angry when I’m hurt and tired.

I need to forgive myself for not being the perfect wife, daughter, mother when I’m trying my best.

I need to forgive myself NOT because I need forgiveness but because I need the release forgiveness brings.

I need to love myself.
