the wisdom of youth

One of my very negative thoughts is that "if my x year old self saw my life, she would be so disappointed / disgusted".

This is a terrible thing for me to say to myself. Self acceptance is so critical. Self acceptance and being happy is part of the FOUNDATION.

Also, I didn't know what my circumstances would be at that time. I have to work within the world that is here. It's easy to say "things SHOULD be this way or that way". It's hard to see clearly. Seeing the world clearly and being knowledgeable about the world is another part of the FOUNDATION.
