Where does courage come from? Depends on who you ask…if you ask a child, it comes from the curiosity they seek. If you ask an adult, it comes from the short pleasure they experience. If you ask a teenager, it comes from the attention they get. So where does courage come for you? I want you to spend a few moments thinking about this question and replying, whether in thought, voice or journaling. Sometimes when we allow our mind to wander the question and we answer how we truly feel, it’s shocking to know where our strength comes from…
My courage comes from…
The eyes of my parents when they couldn’t afford a toy for me as a child…
The tears of my children when I told them we couldn’t afford a meal…
The heartache of myself when I had to tell myself to give something up…
The lowered head of my husband when he was too exhausted about a loss…
That’s where my courage comes from and I allow it to freely live every single day because I know in my heart that I deserve it all. Only when you truly find the courage in you, can you truly begin to live the way you want.
Find your courage…
