Good Enough

I’ve spent my whole life trying to be good enough for YOU.

I never was.

Now, I’m trying to be good enough for me.

I’m failing at that as well.

Oh, I can be good.  I can even be excellent.

Just not quite good ENOUGH.

For all my strengths, there are always weaknesses.

I just can’t get it perfect, of course.

Being a good lawyer isn’t ENOUGH.  I’ve MUST be a rich, successful, prominent lawyer.

Being smart isn’t ENOUGH.  I’ve MUST be the smartest man who ever lived, never making a mental mistake.

Someone, somewhere, has better clothes, better hair, better looks.  I’m not ENOUGH.

I wonder if someday I’ll have ENOUGH of ENOUGH.

    You will feel better when you find someone – someone you love who loves you too. And, you will. In the mean time, (and the mean time IS mean time) enjoy your spiritual, physical and financial freedom.
