SOMETIMES IT IS OKAY!

At times it is okay to be afraid – and even better is to let others see it.

It may happen so that the souls that strive to be fearless are more fearful than those souls who are drenched in fear all the times. As sometimes while striving to be fearless they often conveniently slip into ‘pretending’ to be fearless- thinking it will help them move past. Therefore, pretending to be motivated when they are not, and pretending to be brave while all they can really think of is crying out loud.

Though it is only a matter of time when neither one more song, nor one more quote would lift their spirits up. It is then that their tender fearful souls stand in front of them – fearless – and to confess.

It is true that one has to be strong and fight, and never fall apart. It is true that one has to keep on trying. But, sometimes there is just little one can do to fight – and maybe sometimes not even that. Sometimes it is okay to accept the way you are- fearful, scarred, and terrified.

Maybe sometimes - it is okay to pause and stop trying.
Sometimes it is okay to lean.
