Embrace and love all of yourself - past, present, and future. Forgive yourself quickly and as often as necessary. Encourage yourself. Tell yourself good things about yourself.
Melody BeattieIf somebody rejects you or your choices, you are still real, and you are still worth every bit as much as you would be if you had not been rejected.
Melody BeattieToday I will learn to reject shame. Shame is an overwhelming sense that who I am isn't good enough. I realize that I am good enough, and that my imperfections are part of being human. I let go of shame.
