Unconditionally Me


by Jim Messina


I am who I am


You cannot change me so please do not try


So let up with the criticisms, put downs and attempts to make me fit your "box" for me


Face it, it is easier for you just to accept me as I am


than to work at making me who you want me to be


Of course you do not have to agree with what I say or do


Just accept me as the human I am


I am weak, have sinned, failed, and have made many mistakes in my life


Hey, that's what makes me the "unique me" that I am


I will never be perfect, ideal, or the "image" you want for me


Accept me for who I am as I accept you for who you are


Let's have fun together and allow our "real selves" the freedom to be "us"


We can be a team of unconditional mutual love and acceptance if you relax and let it happen

Good Morning,


This makes me think of  a Quote from M. Scott Peck, M.D., from his Book, "Further Along The Road Less Traveled".


'There are times when, I am not O.K., and you are not O.K., and THAT'S O.K.!'


This day is starting out feeling humble, and so very grateful, and that is a good sign.  Wishing everyone a good 24 hours.


T. Baloney

Hey YooHoo Phil, my Pal,


I know you were one of the ones that started MIP, but never the Less,


If as you said "you'r O.K."  well that makes me  BETTER than O.K.!!


TeHe Back,  Toni


No disrespect to one of the Founders, but a Spade is a Spade.







Your sort-of Pal today, 


Toni
