Any and all insecurities

What is one thing you would change about yourself?

I watch my granddaughter, a well-balanced, polite, smart and pretty young lady appear very confident in herself. My daughter is the same way with a little more hesitation.

I still have insecurities into my 70s which can still hold me back. My mother was fraught with insecurities. She was talented, beautiful, and kind. Yet all her life her insecurities held her back.

So it appears every generation has matured in this area but I still wish at my age I had conquered my insecurities.

I’ve worked on positive affirmations, pushed through insecurities and done things anyway, and even spent time in therapy. But again, I’m still not where I want to be with this.

I own my insecurities. I don’t deny them, as I did when I was younger. This had little effect on my insecurities except to leave me in a state of rage.

I’m not angry anymore. I can be kind and also be happy for those who seem to go through life comfortably in their own skin.

But for today my insecurities are my nemesis that I will probably work on for the rest of my life.
