I've finally understood this.. My whole life I've felt like I was worse than others, never good enough, always lacking.. But I was like that only to my dad who is a wounded person, like so many others. I'm not perfect, and I don't have to be - if I did, I would have been born that way!

I'm good, I always was good enough - for life. I don't have to be good enough to anyone else. I can LIVE my life even though I'm not perfect - I'm not a mistake. Such a relief understanding this..

From now on, I'm going to CHOOSE to think lovingly of myself - whoever or whatever wanted me in this world meant it that way. I was born out of love although my parents were unable to love. In the end, they were just instruments in bringing me into the world. And I say that with love and feel for them - but now, I also feel for myself, and am not going to punish myself anymore for what they were and weren't able to do. It's all about love from now on - that really is all I need!
