These are some of the contradictions I’ve noticed within myself. I don’t fault myself for having these contradictions. As far as I can tell, everyone has some inconsistencies, so that may just be part of the human experience. Maybe it’s possible to get to a point where all contradictions are resolved and there is perfect consistency among thoughts, words, and actions. I’m not worried about it achieving perfect consistency. I’m just going to keep observing myself, loving myself, and enjoying the journey of self-discovery.
