Katie, welcome to the group! I think we represent the full spectrum here from desperately needing better self-esteem to being able to love ourselves and others! I consider myself to have pretty good self-esteem, but then I catch myself (or my husband or a friend catches me) running myself down when I feel like I did something "stupid". (A word I've been working to get out of my vocabulary.) What I've usually done is to provide myself with a learning opportunity, so mistakes are a good thing, right? One big thing I am learning is not to be afraid of failing, because it doesn't make you a failure at all! It's just a road sign that says "TRY AGAIN" or "TRY SOMETHING ELSE". Very useful in "practicing being human." Well, this has gotten kind of long for a "hello", so I'll just say, "I'm very glad you're here!" Blessings, Jeni  Jeni
