I have definitely believed that I would have to be the best and great… to be good enough to receive or to have. 

Definitely inspiring to look deeper at the things are more important to me and what I love. 

The one thing I do not compromise with… is my scared quiet mornings. I get to do one thing that brings me joy each day. 

I don’t think I need to be good to earn good things. I’ve done a lot of inner work with that, because I love living infinite possibility. 

My challenge is that many people *do* think you need to earn something/s, and I don’t like to be judged when I receive something good, that people wonder why or how I got that. 

For example, my daughter’s boss gifted her amazing tickets to see Taylor Swift in concert, and she invited me. It was so fun! Something we wouldn’t get to do if it wasn’t gifted. Something we didn’t expect at all!

And a close friend told me she was jealous, and that she never gets anything like that, why would we. 

Life has been super challenging the past few years, but I’m grateful to experience much good fortune, in that - sometimes in the forms of *extraordinarily amazing* things. I truly don’t like the judgment so sometimes I deflect the gift. Or I experience it quietly, which feels like dimming my joy. 

I’m not sure if anyone can relate. Or would like to share feedback.
