Be gone

 Now that I'm 40 I find I'm questioning things in my life and oddities I've held onto.  I finally excepted that I HATE carrots.  For years I felt some health guilt to consume carrots and tried to learn an appreciation for them.  I fucking hate carrots and don't care if I ever eat them again.  I'm also over bananas but will probably still consume them occasionally.  Now that I've given myself permission to never eat another carrot I've let go of the guilt when I toss them out or push them to the side on my plate.  Such freedom this has brought!  If only I could use this same process to ease the guilt in other areas of my life?  I'm utilizing this philosophy with my "Diet" as well.  I'm done dieting I hate it and if I eat something I shouldn't I'm no longer going to kick my own ass about it.  Just accept and move on.  This mind set is really helping with the lifestyle changes I'm making through the Monarch program.  Why did it take me 40 years to figure out I could release silly pent up guilt and shame over lame things?  I think I'll try to carry this more as I continue to grow as a person.  Guilt and Shame are useless emotions we place on ourselves to continually keep us down.  Freedom at last!
