Be En-couraged

FABLES FOR OUR GRANDCHILDREN
READING TIME: 1 MINUTE

Do you ever wonder how some people melt into a puddle when things get hard, while other people manage to pick themselves up and push themselves forward in the face of grief, fear, or pain — or even bank robbers (Yay, Ada)! 

There is a whole tool belt filled with ways to give ourselves that kind of courage - to find hope in our heart, to find confidence in our actions, to inspire ourself to do that difficult thing. If you want a big life filled with the things that truly matter, you need courage to build it decision by decision. 

What would make your life bigger? 

What small step could you dare to do today? 

Who could you reach out to who could help you? 

How can you en-courage yourself to go forward?

I believe there is enough courage already living in each of us to make all our dreams come true, but we need to be still and listen to our heart’s desires so we can find it.  The famous writer, Anais Nin, said, “Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.”

I hope yours expands. Be en-couraged!

I love you,
Granny
