Day 3 - Something you have to forgive yourself for.

I think this relates to my scratching skin habit. I tend to beat myself up when I have scratched. I want to stop but its hard.

I also need to forgive myself for the way my exs have treated my daughter and B15. Theres still so many parts of me that would love to turn back time and let them not get hurt or treated badly by any of the men I have been involved with over the years. I did get out of those relationships but I feel I should have gotten out earlier in 2 cases in particular.


Day 01 → Something you hate about yourself

Day 02 → Something you love about yourself

Day 03 → Something you have to forgive yourself for.
Day 04 → Something you have to forgive someone for.
Day 05 → Something you hope to do in your life.
Day 06 → Something you hope you never have to do.
Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for.
Day 08 → Someone who made your life hell, or treated you like shit.
Day 09 → Someone you didn’t want to let go, but just drifted.

Day 24 → Make a playlist to someone, and explain why you chose all the songs. (Just post the titles and artists and letter)

Day 26 → Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?
Day 27 → What’s the best thing going for you right now?
Day 28 → What if you were pregnant or got someone pregnant, what would you do?

Just remember these things, Jen:

1. ALL parents hurt their children in some way because none of us can fully understand another's needs which are often different from our own.

2. OK you made some bad choices but so do we all and YOU have suffered more from being with these losers than anyone else.

3. Relationships hit rocky patches and have to be worked at. This was what you were trying to do with your last partner and that is COMMENDABLE

4. Your children know you love tham and never set out to hurt them and THEY have forgiven you AND so has God. Your children will make their own bad choices in time - we ALL do. It is part of the human condition.

5. The scratching is not a sin but a symptom of anxiety and low self-esteem. It hurts no one but yourself. Forgive yourself as you would your best friend and it will ease..
