When I dare to be powerful -- to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.
Audre Lorde
This quote says so much to me, who is a naturally fearful person and an intense worrier.
For one thing . . . what difference does it make how fearful we are or how worried we are about a particular situation? It won't change the outcome, it just robs us of joy and happiness.
What will be will be anyway!
I'm finally learning that strength is within us and never leaves us. We just need to dare to reach in and grab it . . . use it!
