You are brave. Not because you are armored with false protection, but because you are marvelously flawed. You aren’t super human. You aren’t bullet proof. You aren’t perfect. You are faulty and fragile. You walk into the world, not with it’s weight on your shoulders or it’s hand at your back, but with a knowing that you are simply human. Your heart may be broken, your goals may seem too far out of reach, your home may be divided, and your stress may be through the roof but you press. You open the door day after day, you rise every morning, you move beyond your circumstance. You push beyond those limitations, faithful that you can do all things. Therein lies your courage and it is breathtaking. Cherish your bravery–you earned it.
