I’m grateful that I’m more compassionate with myself about my flaws and mistakes and that I no longer feel I need a moral high ground to be a good person. via /r/gratitude

And by "moral high ground" I mean saying things like, "I would NEVER do such-and-such and I don't understand people who do!" As I mentioned in another post, there are certainly things I pray I never do and that I strive to stay far away from. But life has taught me that a judgmental attitude is the worst protection against falling into the very thing you think you'd never fall into. And I'm grateful for the peace that comes with humility and empathy for others struggling in ways I've never been tested with.
