I am glad you can see.. but recognize that the greatest fault in self improvement is expecting immediate perfection. When you see you are not as you wish to be you tear yourself down without giving credit for how far you have come. Is that really fair? I firmly believe that without darkness you can never truly know light, and in that you know what void you have created by ignoring the truth of who you are.I like that you've developed a plan for what you feel you need to do, but in the meantime I don't think you are all that bad. A little misaligned at times, but that can be fixed. Be willing to forgive yourself and the rest will follow. Forgive, but not condemn.
