You can't really tell how far you've come until you find something from the past which shows you where you began. And suddenly... you realize you are no where near that place where you were back then.
I just saw a blog post I wrote a year ago, and I'm astounded. I don't feel like I'm making bounds of progress, but I read my words of anguish from just 12 months ago, and I don't relate to those words anymore. I don't look back much at all anymore. I look back so rarely now that it surprises me when I do.
Yesterday I had a look-back-and-feel-sorry-for-myself-day.
After a good cry and a night of rest, I awoke with better perspective.
I have come so far in the last year, even farther in the last two.
I'm my own person, and I am thriving. Sometimes it doesn't feel that way, because I'm always comparing myself to my ideal, but I AM KICKING BUTT.
For that I am so very grateful.
Look back at yourself a year ago, two, three, five.
Thank yourself today for how far you've come.
