The Archangels Tell Us to be Kind to Ourselves
I think a lot of us tend to be our own worst critic. When I fall into this trap the Angels always tell me to relax and be kinder to myself. I also feel self-made pressure to be a good representative for them, and when I make mistakes, I feel doubly bad. The Angels have never chastised me for making mistakes or forgetting to be a better person, but they have scolded me in a very loving way from time to time and tell me I’m too hard on myself.
I remember when I was first really working on not being ruled by emotions such as anger, fear, etc. I got mad at someone for something, then felt bad about forgetting to be better, and the Angels said I was looking at it all wrong, that I should celebrate the fact that I caught myself and got back on track. Like everyone, I struggle at times, and I asked them to guide us about being too hard on ourselves and messing up from time to time, and their reply follows.
