Free to be wrong

from Illuminating Anorexia & Eating Disorder Recovery · host Michelle Sparkes

One of the most liberating experiences of my life is to know and accept my frail, flawed, finite humanity. It reads like a misprint doesn’t it? As human beings we often spend much of our lives ‘protecting’ ourselves from this vulnerable reality but I have discovered it to be the very bedrock of  freedom. And to discover that I am loved and chosen in my imperfection is the jewel of the crown. The healing oil, the balm, the salve, the soothing and the most liberating and revolutionary truth I know…and continue to appreciate every day of my life. Welcome to some thoughts on freedom. Feedback and questions welcome. [email protected] @mp_sparkes
