Courage

Because it is those times, regardless of any outcomes, regardless of anyone else’s thoughts, judgements, perceptions and interpretations - that are there to remind you to hold your head up and to look up at the peak.

It has been a beautiful journey already and so incredible to see the connection and growth that has already taken place in those that are on the course. The A-Ha moments are continually coming, the self-love and self-compassion rising, the voice of boundaries strengthening.

There are times in life when we have to find every drop of energy, to push on through a relentless pursuit to get to where we need to be. We may feel like we’ve climbed a million mountains to get there. That we have fought every lion, tiger and bear along the way with no yellow brick road in sight.

“What do I do? I don’t know what to do?Just writing that statement, I can feel a tightening of my chest and a vision in my mind of wanting to scream and pull my hair out simultaneously. Our world is struggling, and likewise, the people that inhabit it are also struggling. Stress is appearing around every corner, from the juggling of daily life, to the unknown of the financial crisis, so it is no wonder that people feel like they are teetering on the edge of insanity, coming ever closer to a hole of discomfort.
