Live and let live

This live and let live has taken a bit of practice for me to grasp. I do not always get it right either. I have noticed if I get focused on the past my live and let live mantra escapes me. Then I remember my new way of life is to live in the moment and at the moment I am safe, I do not have to jump through hoops for anyone to save my life. I can just be. I do not have to please anyone at the expense of my own wishes, dreams, needs or wants. I have a voice that can speak up, choose to be silent when needed, or speak self talk. Today I live.
