Tears

Precious weekend. Got to see my doll’s Iconique event and wowww I’m incredibly proud of her! Her ambition is so hot I was so pleased to be there for it.

Been reflecting on a dialectic that’s ruled my internal world in so many ways: That of self-discipline and self-compassion. When discipline overwhelms compassion I experience a great deal of misery and discontent. When compassion overwhelms discipline passivity can become the normal state of things, an unwillingness to experience the discomfort which is a source of growth. For me, discipline often overwhelms compassion and I have to circle back to find kindness for myself. It gets easier with experience! I’m still learning like we all will be until we die. How does one change without turning themself into an enemy?
