Dulce Secrets – Bits & Pieces of My SL

A new round of The Challenge started today and the theme this month is castaway. Shutter Field has designed two sets for this event. The castaway bed set includes the lantern and bed, which has solo and couple animations and wearable props. The outhouse set gave me a chuckle when I spotted the bathroom tissue on the makeshift outhouse. The toilet and outhouse stuff completes the set.

The Challenge runs from the 1st of the month to the 2oth and items in the event are discounted 30%.

I am wearing a new skin that I actually purchased a while back and recently found when I was fumbling around in my inventory trying to get it organized a little better. You really can’t see it in this picture, but you can see it on the sidebar of the blog page. I’m also wearing new color eyes. I’m sharing all that, because what I really wanted to point out is that I have made a basics menu up above to list all those items I use regularly and won’t bore you with being so repetitive under credits after this post.

Have a great Tuesday!

*Review copy

As I sit here reflecting on this lesson, the first question that popped up into my mind was “Why is it easier to show others mercy by forgiving them then it is ourselves?” Personally, I think it’s because we live in our heads and we’re constantly in our negative moments reminding ourselves constantly what we did wrong.

If you have guilt or shame that is preventing you from living a more fulfilling happy life, then hopefully this lesson will help you in some way to ease up and forgive yourself.

Lesson 23: Forgive Yourself

Self-forgiveness is the key to living an extraordinary life. By making the courageous choice to forgive ourselves for our mistakes and shortcomings, we liberate ourselves from the bonds of our past and open the door to a new future.

When we forgive ourselves, we feel worthy and deserving of receiving everything that life has to offer.

Your Self-Love Assignment

This week, make a list of all the behaviors and incidents for which you want to be forgiven. After writing down your list, say a prayer asking for the compassion to forgive yourself. Then put your list in a sealed envelope next to a seven-day candle (which you can get at most gift stores).

Light this candle and let it burn an hour a day. As it burns, think about why you’re worthy of your own forgiveness.

Self-Love Points Earned

Give yourself 200 points for completing the above exercise.
