So many of us live with an underlying sense that we are not enough. We believe that if only we were smarter, more disciplined, or more lovable, we’d finally be at peace. Yet the real prison is not our imperfections, but the belief that we should be perfect.
~ Tara Brach, Radical Acceptance
These words strike close to my heart. I know the weight of striving, the ache of not believing I’m enough. This quote reminds me, and maybe you too, that peace isn’t found in perfection, but in softening towards ourselves.
