This is a re-post and timely reminder. When challenges arise, we have a choice: to tap into our willpower and strength of our mind, or to open our heart and find the loving courage within us.
Being vulnerable is never easy in difficult times, especially when we don’t want to get hurt. However, remember that an open heart is always the way home to being our true Selves.
It takes strength to be firm
It takes courage to be gentleIt takes strength to stand guard
It take courage to let down your guardIt takes strength to conquer
It take courage to surrenderIt takes strength to be certain
It takes courage to have doubtIt takes strength to fit in
It takes courage to stand outIt takes strength to feel a friends pain
It takes courage to feel your own painIt takes strength to hide you own pains
It takes courage to shown themIt takes strength to stand alone
It takes courage to lean on anotherIt takes strength to love
It takes courage to be loved.It takes strength to survive
It takes courage to live fully
Whenever you feel you have neither,
May the heart of the universe hug you today
