As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a PM to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!

Greetings my friends, and welcome to another Saturday. Congratulations, we made it through yet another week. A friend requested that I should write a diary about “Being kinder to yourself..” The problem is, I have never been very good at being kind to myself. Taking care of other people? I can usually manage that, but taking care of myself. Then I remembered something from when I was a child, and realized, that it was something I had carried through most of my life. When I was a kid, I had a book, that I carried with me almost everywhere. In this book, I kept Quotes, that meant something to me, or that were special in some way. The book has gone away, but I still collect quotes, and when I need them, for myself, or someone else, there they are. So, here are a few of my favorites.
“Perfection is a Myth.” trying to be perfect is useless. Its a waste of time, because its our flaws that make us human.
“Next Time.” You don’t have to be perfect...(See above.) All you have to do, is be better than you were next time.
“You can’t step in the same river twice.” Remember that time changes -everything-
“Where there is life, there is hope.”
Why? What good are they? I can’t promise they will be any good for anyone else. But for me? They work almost like Pneumonic devices. They are ways of reminding myself, that even when I make a mistake, all is still not lost.
I can’t promise they will help you, but it is worth a shot, no?
