No more "supposed tos," OK, Elizabeth?

 

You're not supposed to work harder, look better, sleep less, sell more, run faster, talk slower, be happier, stay longer, leave earlier, cook, clean, negotiate, settle, start, stop, move, try, win, shake, rattle or roll.

 

Other people made all that up.

 

I love you the way you are,

Oh, you can do any or all of the above, Elizabeth, you so can, but you're not "supposed to."

 

**was just saying a lot of I shoulds at myself, and while there are things I can do, and things I need to do, I don't need to beat myself up over it all. Again.

You have no responsibility to live up to what other people think you ought to accomplish. And if you don't meet their expectations, it's their own mistake, not your failing.

Life without shaming and shoulds is a good thing.
