"The self is not infinitely elastic--it has potentials and it has limits. If the work we do lacks integrity for us, then we, the work, and the people we do it with will suffer . . . We learn experimentally that we thrive on some connections and wither with others, and that we enhance our integrity by choosing relationships that give us life and violate it by assenting to those that do not."
Today, live with integrity. Accept and embrace your gifts. Don't feel shame for your limits or try to create a false persona to hide them. Nurture relationships that are healthy for you and gently release those that are not. This is not failure, but wisdom.
