At points, we can find ourselves bombarded with an avalanche of “shoulds.”
I have a new measure for these shoulds to act on and those that are folly.
Does this benefit everyone involved? And does it do no harm or attempt to minimize harm?
We shoulder a lot when we blindly accept and abide by so many shoulds–how we “should” feel , act, or be. Likewise for things we “should not”….
To let them go and transform them, we need to recognize we took them on. We have made them ours.
Nothing can weigh us down and cave us in on ourselves more than a mountain of shoulds and should nots.
What is mutually more beneficial and/or less harming to all involved?
This seems sustainable!
You really should try this! Really you SHOULD!
It just might be beneficial to all involved.
