Imperfection

Tonight in my vipassana meditation sitting group the leader talked about leading with his stomach into rooms and how his response to overeating is guilt. He said that although guilt is an attempt to get ourselves to change something, it is an unskillful way. Better to surrender to imperfection and be mindful and kind to ourselves about that. So instead of feeling guilty about being too tired to write anymore tonight, I will surrender to my imperfection and go to sleep. May you also surrender to your own imperfection. Sweet dreams!
