Very bold stance and quite healthy. I have long been an advocate of Dr. Karl’s advice to all of us that if we only learned to forgive ourselves we would be much healthier. So I suppose Karl’s advice is a great pre-emptive philosophy for adopting a good enough approach. You might think that forgiving ourselves gives us a long leash that might lead us astray, but I find it does just the opposite. It keeps me mindful of my actions in a sober and thoughtful way. I will now strive to be good enough to be good enough. Thanks for your thoughtful post.
