… #not-perfect…
I’m having one of those days when I’m feeling stupid.
You know, …, those days when you’ve slept just for about 4 hours the night before, and It’s like you have two left hands, two left feet, and just a half of a brain?
That’s the one!
So… the thought crosses my mind (that half-functional brain I was talking about)… I feel just stupid right now! I mean, how hard is it to send that email after composing it and, instead, just shutting down the computer?!!:)
Then it hits me!
I feel stupid, but at least I feel something!
And this makes me smile. Because I feel so lucky to be capable of feeling things and accepting them!
We are used to feeling guilty when we act stupid (according to our judgment, of course), isn’t it?
But why is that?
What’s so wrong with feeling stupid sometimes?
If we think about it, I’m sure each one of us had, at some point in our lives, a feeling of being stupid because of the way we acted when we were in love, isn’t it? Isn’t being in love the BEST feeling ever? So, wouldn’t you rather be feeling stupid in love than not feeling in love at all, but just being … let’s say smart? 😊 Feeling stupid at that point, just makes you realize how much you care. Right? So, it doesn’t make you feel guilty, so you accept it!
But, what about feeling stupid like I’m feeling today, for not being able to do something the right way? Should it make me feel guilty? No! It doesn’t, because I love feelings and also it helps me understand that, as long as I am capable of realizing this, it only means that I have the capacity to think clearly, even when I’m not really sure about it. So, it’s also something smart about this, isn’t it?
Let’s allow ourselves to feel stupid for a little bit! And this way, to learn to forgive ourselves for not being so perfect!
