Courage

Sometimes all you need is 20 seconds of insane courage.--We Bought A Zoo

This quote has sort of become my mantra. I look at as saying if you have courage for those twenty seconds you will have started something that you may have been too afraid to do otherwise. And once you start it, you will finish it. (Even if it's a little later than you expect.)

Like once you get the courage up to tell someone how they've hurt you, then you will be able to start healing from the wounds.

But the hardest part is getting up the courage to be able to face that person whose hurt you, because you put up a shield to protect yourself after someone hurts you. To the point where you can begin to block out people who want to help you and people who genuinely care about you. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between those who are going to hurt you and those who care about you.

That's the point where you have to trust in yourself and remember that it's okay to make mistakes and that's how you learn in life.

Love,
Natalie
