On Being Better

"True nobility isn't about being better than anyone else, it is about being better than you used to be."

~ Wayne Dyer

Gosh I love this one! For me, it speaks to personal and spiritual growth and giving ourselves credit for the progress we are making. Our recognition must come from within initially, not from others. So we might want to take a break from beating ourselves up mentally, and acknowledge what a great job we are doing with our lives. God recognizes this in us every day.

How about trying this: See yourself through the eyes of Source. That's what unconditional love is. If we could speak to ourselves as kindly as we speak to, encourage and praise our children & our friends, we'd make the journey a lot easier on ourselves. This is self-parenting; speaking lovingly to ourselves now...the way some of us wish our parents had.

I believe we ARE better than we used to be the day before. We are willing to be in the game of life. To experience all the ups and downs, and make some sense of it. THAT IS being better than we used to be.

Let's keep up the good work of acknowledging our progress. Give credit where credit is due. YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB...AND SO AM I.

Love,
Sherry
