...I received this comment via the submission box:<br /><br /><br />To the author of Perfect is Never Enough: I have definitely been there, and I struggled with the idea of trying to be perfect for them. It was more than I can handle. As humans, we aren't meant to be perfect. We're supposed to make mistakes, and be able to learn from them. <br />That was probaly one of the most difficult things I've ever had to learn. At the same time, I'm glad I did. So, to you, don't feel like you have to be perfect to please your parents. If they aren't happy with you as a person, they aren't worth it. Sad to say, but it's true. <br />You need to focus on what it will take to make you happy, not everyone else around you. Try maybe every night or morning, thinking of one good thing that happened that day. Maybe it's as simple as "it was sunny today, and the sun felt good on my skin" or it could be something more like talking to an old friend or helping someone, just anything. I know it sounds cheesy but it really can help. <br />Also, try doing one thing that you love doing, every day. Maybe it's a tv show, reading a book, music, photography, art, dance, exercise, etc. Just anything that makes you happy. <br />I don't know if you'll actually read this, or if it will help you at all, but I really hope it does. Good luck!<br />Oh, and K, this is a fantastic site, great job. :)Kelly Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05670548896785539823noreply@blogger.com
