My Boldness Looks Like...

Sometimes being bold is making the simple choice to get out of bed and be the best you that you can be that day. Maybe being bold means making a check list of things you wish to accomplish today, and striving to do so. Maybe being bold means forcing yourself to eat, even if the smell makes you nauseous. Today boldness might mean standing up for yourself. Speaking up when you or someone else is being mistreated, or taken advantage of. Maybe everything is not okay right now, but it can be. Maybe being bold is being honest with yourself. Maybe being bold is not letting fear control you when you hear someone make a racist comment or when you see injustice unfold before your eyes. Maybe being bold is taking a stand for what you believe in, and knowing that you don't have to be the victim. Maybe you were the victim of something once, but you don't have to choose to stay there. Maybe boldness looks like choosing to move on from that. Maybe being bold is simply looking yourself in the mirror, flaws and all and repeating the words "I am more than enough." I'm not sure what boldness looks like for you...but this....this is what it looks like for me.
