We talk of Christ . . . and we write according to our (understanding), that our children (and friends) may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins. (2 Nephi 25:26)

An Achingly Raw, Honest Look at Unrealistic Self-Expectations and Their Damaging Effects
Thanks for sharing this link. I needed the reminder to put my expectations into proper perspective. I really liked comment 6, but then I always like what Thomas Parkin has to say!
I loved this! I have often been dismayed by the effects of perfectionism and the feeling of never being good enough that seems to pervade Mormonism. It's nice to see someone standing up for being human and relying on grace for those things that we aren't (and probably never will be) perfect at.
Personal thoughts on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; links to thought-provoking posts on Tuesday and Thursday; New Year's Resolution post on Saturday; break on Sunday.
