10 Things you should never say sorry for, is a list of my favourite beliefs.
It’s a week since we welcomed the new year.
Remember these 10 .For me they are nonnegotiable, for living well.
1) Sincerity
This characteristic makes you trustworthy .Any relationship, you need trust.So being sincere is a quality you should never apologize for.
2)For reading books
The treasure trove of knowledge. I owe my life and all that I know to books .Read ,read and then read some more. That’s my motto in life.Paperback,e-books ;magazines ,newspapers anything What’s more important that learning?
3)For doing your best
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.
I only do things I can invest time sincerely.
4)For being kind
A highly underrated quality .It’s also a difficult one.Online or offline I plan to really persist with this.
5)For being honest
This one is a tricky one.Modifiable according to situation. Balance this with caution .For mental peace is even more important.
6)For loving yourself. A lot.
Self love is important. Until you love yourself you can’t love others completely. Until you love yourself your soul doesn’t feel loved.
7)For wanting to be there for your kids.
This is a landmine .SAHM ,WAHM ,working moms all have boatload of guilt.
Whatever you are ,it doesn’t matter.God knows what you want.
8)For being happy .
Happy is the best .It’s the best multivitamin.It’s the best way to look and stay healthy.
Happy means you enjoy life. That’s important. Enjoyment.
9)For liking money
Money is a misunderstood commodity.It’s a means of bartering .If you like the good it does ,there’s really no harm.If you appreciate it ,its attracted to you .If you feel it’s not important, that’s not good .
10)For believing in God
We are because of a supreme power.Saying thank you to this power is a way of reinforcing your belief. Believing makes thing happen.
Pray to God,but row towards the shore

That’s very beautiful list we should not be sorry for. Some of them are my favourite
Geethica says
As always our views match totally. I don’t work from an office because that’s how my life is made at home with family with kids. And I don’t feel sorry for that. I am earning maybe not like the corporate ones but at least that much which makes me happy.
Tina Basu says
That’s true to the T. Never feel sorry for being good and honest and sincere in what you do. Very nice post AM.
nameeshn24 says
I agree to all the points completely. Well, most of the traits are forgotten by many people. I like the idea of being kind, helping kids, loving money, god, loving oneself and infact everything. A great message, seems like you turned philosopher 🙂

All the 10 points are so apt and most of them will eventually lead to a better person.

I read it and commented on it when you posted it. Reading it again now, and it makes even more sense this time around.
Loved it!

Sondra Barker says
This is one of my favorite posts from you ever! It’s so important to realize that we don’t need to say sorry for these things!
dramrita says
Thanks Sondra. Glad you liked this.

Interesting that you put money on the list. I never thought about it that way!

Amrita , as women I think we are just the more apologetic gender. We set too high standards for ourself and are our own worst critics .. we just judge ourselves too harsh and that’s why every item on that 10 point list makes complete sense and is bang on. No matter how many times we re affirm , we just go ahead and do it … but I guess reading these posts helps us to bring it down a notch and feel that its fine .. we are okay 🙂
authenticfoodquest says
Love this list. And I especially agree with the idea for not apologizing for”loving onself, alot.”. This can often be misconstrued as selfishness…and it isn’t. Great reminders!
Patricia @ Grab a Plate says
Yes! There are things I apologize for that I shouldn’t! It’s a bit hard to do, but I do try to catch myself before it happens. Great reminder with your post!
dramrita says
Thanks Patricia.

The Dole Whip Press says
Amen! This is a great list! I tend to apologize about everything. I never could figure out why, but if it rains I say, I’m sorry….for everything. You inspire me to roll with it.

Katie Kinsley says
I don’t think I’ve ever apologized for reading a book!
