Have you ever considered the notion that you are your worst enemy? Self condemnation and pity parties make us our own enemy. When I look in the mirror and ridicule myself, I am the enemy. When I don't eat healthy, I am the enemy. When I don't get enough rest, I am the enemy. When I don't exercise, I am the enemy. When I put work before my health, I am the enemy. When I put money before happiness, I am the enemy. When I don't speak up when others are treated wrong, I am the enemy. When I believe that lying is easier than telling the truth, I am the enemy. When I start to lower my standards to lift others, I am the enemy. When I can't practice self control, I am the enemy. When I become what I hate, I am the enemy.
No wonder we can't look at ourselves in the mirror anymore. We are sleeping with the enemy. No one else to blame...but the enemy. After all is said and done, I am the enemy. Now what?
