Have you asked someone what they desire to be more like and they reply “to be courageous”? It takes courage to admit we desire more courage.
Many of our current wishes are waiting for us to become courageous enough to take the first step. It takes courage to move forward despite voices in our head saying, “it is too hard”, “you need more time”, “don’t be foolish”, or ” don’t open yourself up”. Courage is moving through standing waves of limited beliefs and being ok with feeling the fear of disapproval and the intensity of the insecurity and unknown.
What is on your wish list? What is in your heart to be expressed? What is holding you up? Muster some courage to take a small step ….
Courageous
Courageous are not those
who say the right words
not acknowledging or feeling
the words in their heart.
Courageous are not those
who ignore their heart’s desire
to be accepted by others.
Courageous are not those
who dim their inner light
to shine less to please others.
Courageous
are those who touch their feelings.
Courageous
are those who feel their feelings
despite the intensity.
Courageous
are those who allow tears to roll down their face.
Courageous
are those who are committed to their own highest good.
