love my neighbor as myself

I know this is something I should be doing ALL the time BUT- I am having such issues with them that I am really ready to move!!!! But I can not let them win and instead of sinking to their level- I plan on trying this week to get over all of the dirty things they have done and be better than that. I am a good person- I dont lie, Steal, cheat, gossip or even kick puppies. I can be a little better by getting over this! Right? I can… I can…. They make me not even want to leave my house! I think I can, I think I can.

This is another one of those goals I’ve moved on from. What I mean is this is something you must do all day, every day. It’s not something you do once. So therefore I’m taking it off of here. I think of 43 Things as a real to do list.

This may be one of those goals that are not accomplished within a lifetime. I know this is something I must do daily. You don’t cross it off and then it’s done. I know that I won’t find the right woman until I’m able to give love freely. Now I’m not saying that I don’t give love freely. I’m saying that my issues is with how I feel about myself.

I refuse to let the wreckage of the past dictate the way I feel about myself today. The truth is through my Higher Power I’ve conquered more than I ever could through my own willpower. It follows then that I can love myself with no shame or guilt.
