20 Things I’m leaving behind…

Any sense of guilt for being self indulgent. Blanket statement.
Justifying wine with bubbles.
Feeling the need to try to explain anything to anyone committed to ignorance.
Shame for being made happy by pretty clothes.
Insecurity about my body.
Trying to understand people who prefer being miserable to being happy.
Believing that if I only apply enough moisturizer the lines on my face will disappear.
Being frustrated by my inability to settle for less than I’d like.
That familiar paralyzation when confronted by a necessary home project.
Hopefully, my insomnia caused, in part, by Donald Trump and his governing by Tweet.
Any rigidness in my practices. I want to bend better.
The need to grocery shop as if I was still providing food for a family of four. It’s now 1.5. Time to adjust.
Trying to please others before myself.
Quietly accepting thoughtlessness.
Believing that pathological liars will ever change their ways.
Having more loyalty to others than to myself.
Attempts to understand why people spend so much energy trying to pretend they’re somebody else.
Overfilling my calendar.
Taking cocktails and meals enjoyed at a bar for granted.
