Share Your Heart with the World - Melody Beattie

Share your heart with the world. Share Willingly, openly, joyfully what you have seen, what you have learned.

Don't tell people how you think you should have handled things. That's shame.  It teaches others to feel ashamed too. Don't tell people how you wish you had handled things. That's needless regret that we pas on to others.

Share honestly and openly about yourself, the way you felt, the things you thought. Share how going through your experience changed you.  Talk about your resistance, your pain, the imperfect way you did things, the way you handle things now.

Sharing honestly and openly teaches the people around you the most helpful truth - that the imperfect way we live our lives us right for us at the time.  When we love and accept ourselves enough to honestly share who we are, it helps those we touch to believe that they're good enough too.

Share your heart with the world around you and you will bring healing to those you touch.
