Perfection

Sometime I feel like I can't do anything right, but then I do something nice for someone and I remember that I am a good person with good intentions and despite my shortcomings, that's the thing that really matters.

Expectations, "Shoulds", Guilt, Comparison.  These are the things that steal my joy and distract me from the blessings in my life, my family.  How do I rid myself of these shackles? These reminders of my imperfection in temporal things?  Honestly, social media has a lot to do with it.  As a stay at home mom, it can feel so nice to feel connected and relevant, but then the comparison starts creeping in.  I wonder if I'll ever conquer anxiety.
