The next time I'm feeling frustrated with myself, not living up to my expectations for my day or for my life, please read me the poem, Grace, by Morgan Harper Nichols. She writes:
You have never shamed the waves
for not arriving on the ocean shore
any sooner than they were meant to
and you have never looked above you
to guilt the clouds for taking their time
as they cross the noonday sky.
You simply accept: these clouds must travel
at whatever pace they need to.
Oh,
what a difference
it would make if you gave yourself
this same grace."[1]
