I can live with myself.

I have always had the courage for the new things that life sometimes offers.

The older I've gotten, the more I've learned that I have to open myself up to all opportunities. Maybe I'll get burned and not meet the right people, but I won't know until I do it.

Loving and accepting ourselves are the ultimate acts of courage.

Balance for me now means seeing myself as a tree, being strong enough in my roots and trunk to not be a pushover, but being flexible enough in every circumstance not to break. I am continuing to expand, but not any faster than my roots can support me.

We are alive and need to take risks. And if we fail, so what? Who cares? It doesn't matter. Learn and move on without judgement.

Be patient with yourself even when you make mistakes.

Risks are a measure of people. People who won't take them are trying to preserve what they have. People who do take them often end up having more. Some risks have a future, and some people call them wrong. But being right may be like walking backwards proving where you've been. Being wrong isn't in the future, or in the past. Being wrong isn't anywhere but being here. Best place to be, eh?
