words words words



All I want is for someone to listen, someone to hear, someone to know, someone to understand.
Those someones give the words
meaning.

courage


I used to think that "fearless" was the best motto.
But then I heard the quote

"Courage is not the absense of fear,
but the knowledge that
something else is more important than fear"

I think that makes the action more meaningful.
Knowing that you are scared, knowing that you have fear
but still moving forward.

Fear



How can we grow if we are afraid to change?
How can we change if we are afraid to grow?

Change your world, starting with the small stuff. Sleep more. Paint your nails. Ride a bike, or take a bus to somewhere you've never been. Go to a farmer's market. Cook muffins and bring them to your neighbors. Petition for a cause you care about. Call the president. Design a t-shirt. Try foreign food. Go on a road trip, even if only for a day. Play. Go to a party. Put on a party. Sing loudly in the shower. Sing loudly in public. Cry when you're sad. Trust people. Give people a second chance. Learn to swim. Run a marathon. Make that phone call to the person you miss. Tell the person you love how you feel.

"Do one thing every day that scares you"
