I hit that spot all the time... and have the problem that the grass always seems to look greener on the other side! Recently though I was talking to a friend who is an assistant to a well known fashion photographer in Paris. She told me that here boss (the photographer) has recently been complaining to her that he isnt sure if he is any good at his job or if he even wants to be a photographer as a career. I thought it way interesting that even those who are who are wildly successful at what they do still second guess themselves and have insecurities!Malaykahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16557168553242702472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737703898970965544.post-7473562097670702222011-05-27T07:17:39.276-07:002011-05-27T07:17:39.276-07:00THANK YOU Beth for this post!

It's hard to do (saying this as a college student where people complain about 4.0s..grr), but we really can't gauge our own lives with someone else's. <br /><br />It just makes you believe that what you already have is NOT special. Which is completely and utterly false. <br /><br />So Beth! I hope you know that you are making your mark on the world and your shop and life and family (Ruby is sooooo cute!) are important. People can lead strong and meaningful lives...quietly. We don't all have to be some obnoxious celebrity or Secretary-General of the U.N. hahah xDCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553007659803908831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737703898970965544.post-22684694700990545892011-05-26T14:38:28.300-07:002011-05-26T14:38:28.300-07:00i think you are amazing and inspiring Beth! and th...i think you are amazing and inspiring Beth! and that last picture of Ruby is beyond gorgeous - frame that!CarleeKajsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05703204293632684852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737703898970965544.post-53884734900025911792011-05-26T14:20:05.177-07:002011-05-26T14:20:05.177-07:00yes, gratefulness certainly battles that demon of ...yes, gratefulness certainly battles that demon of comparison. thanks for writing this. <br /><br />also, ruby is precious.Maria Casteelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019147739198235041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737703898970965544.post-66404062640703743742011-05-26T13:40:45.207-07:002011-05-26T13:40:45.207-07:00I have been feeling this way a lot lately.

Some days it helps to say out loud that I am enough; good, pretty, smart, talented and successful enough. I am happy to know that I am not the only one, and happy that you are finding the joy! <br />xoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10309882076935158169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737703898970965544.post-74505557077943433152011-05-26T13:18:23.615-07:002011-05-26T13:18:23.615-07:00what a great and inspiring post. you are so totall...what a great and inspiring post. you are so totally right! last night i was just feeling "less-than" & felt i needed to do pretty much everything better (be cuter, better dressed, better blog, better vintage shop, etc), so this post comes at a good time for me. i'm going to follow your lead here. :)laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05805270149790604401noreply@blogger.com
