Forgive yourself- You are Human.

OK, I have to admit it, I am a Living TV fan and since watching “At Home with the Hasselhoffs”, have become a Hoff Fan. I know it is sad, but there was just something about watching Michael Hasselhoff on holiday with his family which felt unscripted and real and a welcome break from all other TV shows. It is so nice to see a star really cherishing his family and wanting to spend time with them. I thought it was a real triumph for the family vibe, despite what you think of him.

I loved what he said at the end of the show…

“My job is to be a great parent, but it is not easy as I am human!”

I thought that said it all….it is hard and our only job ever really is to be a good parent. It reminds me of another quote (I cannot remember who said it!)

“Today I only have to fail better than I did yesterday”

I love this as it takes away the need to be perfect, which we all love!

As long as we don’t make the same mistake again and again, life is good.
