Give Yourself Permission

You Deserve A Good Future

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 7 months ago 1 min read
Because you are beautiful and special

“The past

is not a compass for your future.

Give yourself permission

to chart a new course.”

“Give yourself permission!”

This is Your life,

Your choices

and

Your responsibility.

The beauty of life

is that we ‘learn’ from the past

so that today we can make

the future a happier and more positive one.

Letting the past 'control' you

will only slow down and halt your personal growth

and then you may not even

be moving at all

on your journey in life.

When we disentangle ourselves

from past identities,

we are ‘creating’ for ourselves

a new path forwards.

A good example of this

is when a person asks for help

to overcome their drug addiction.

They receive the aid they need

and he or she turns their life around

for the better and then

makes a good life for themselves.

Be proud when you do anything similar to this.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
