I cons...I feel like I could have written this post. I constantly struggle with (and loose to) the feeling that I'm not living up to my own standards. That I should be BETTER at EVERYTHING. The worst part about my perfectionist tendencies is that in the past 10 years or so it's just caused me to give up on things. I think subconsciously I feel that if I just don't try then I can't really fail. I wish I could banish my perfectionist tendencies. :(<br /><br />Love the photo of you!!Meeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07960898402016075921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-70833602872018803182010-10-05T11:14:59.151-05:002010-10-05T11:14:59.151-05:00OHMYGOODNESS...look at that picture of you!

The fear of appearing anything less than perfect has caused me pain my entire life. That fear caused me to become exactly what I feared most-a person who could do nothing. I am now working on casting those fears aside so I too may welcome love and light into my life. You,dear Lis,are part of that.<br /><br />PS-I am also a ScorpioSharynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17275756757881035646noreply@blogger.com
