COURAGE FOR THE BRAVE AND BEAUTIFUL REAL YOU

COURAGE

We generally recognize courage the most when we see someone among us risking their life to save a human being, an animal, or a forest filled with life, or a home or a way of life – something larger than themselves.

But another risk-worthy thing larger than ourselves is ourselves being our true selves, ourselves using our unique mix of abilities and interests, our talent, passions, yearnings and dreams – ourselves following our own path.

But courage deserves to be recognized for all the ways it helps us and be reached for whenever it’s needed. Sometimes it takes courage to say, “Yes.” Sometimes, it’s to say, “No.” And sometimes it takes courage just get out of bed and face the day. 

In this day, let’s give thanks for courage and use it in every way we need it and in every way that matters, which really is in all that we do. 

I’m closing with gratitude for courage, compassion, and all of life’s gifts, including  reverence, which I have for the brave and the beautiful Real You.
