“We tell ourselves so many lies and half-truths ... We listen and are duly impressed by these inner voices that turn into unseen judges that nag at us. We give each of these judges a seat of honor in our minds, all the while hating their guts and their never-ending supply of judgements ... We give the judges permission to accompany us on each journey of life, never daring to realize that we can park them, at least momentarily.”

I'm choosing to soften their voices this year... My inner critic will be silenced with kind words and a refusal to take in cruelty...

WOW. great quote. I have felt the pain of realizing that i had lied to myself. not many things are as bad as that. I have always viewed myself as an honest and honorable man, but lying to myself is not honest nor honorable when it leads me to do something i regretted.
