Courage

It is not easy to stand up for yourself. It is not easy to set limits and let others know what they can do or not do.
If you have allowed much abuse, your tolerance becomes so broad that you might not be able to recognize abuse anymore.
In an effort of being accepted by the people around you, be it family, friends, clients, or lovers, you might allow situations that cause you emotional pain.
So, it takes courage to protect yourself.
It takes courage to tell someone what you want and what you don’t want. It takes courage to tell that friend that you don’t want to do something without making a excuse.
It takes courage to stop and place limits.
It takes courage to be you, the full expression of yourself and be willing to accept the consequences of your actions.
It takes courage to fight your inner battles and face your fears.
It takes courage to acknowledge your feelings, to express them and to act accordingly.


You have this courage inside you.
Let your heart guide you and speak from within.
