It seems to me that in this crazy world today, most people don’t want to “be the one who dares;” they’d rather someone else do the job! Yet, being someone who dares is quite an honor; it’s your gift of the right to be who you are, to excel at what you do, to make a change in the world, and to be “the one who dares.”
If you’re wondering what that means, then I’ll tell you my version, or opinion, of that…so here goes:
“Be the one who dares to…”
~Be different than all the rest
~Take a risk and a chance on something better
~Be a dreamer
~ Be a lover, not a fighter
~Be friend, not a matter of convenience
~Take a chance on love, even though you’ve been hurt
~Laugh even though your heart is hurting
~Remember the love of the ones you’ve lost, rather than cry bitter tears over missing them; cry with joy over having known them and loved them.
~Not care what other people think of you, but rather, of what you think of yourself
~Look in the mirror at yourself and know you did the best you could today.
~Dance in the worst of times, and dance in the best
~Stop and smell the roses, even though you have a million other things to do
~Say “I love you” as often as you can
~Accept that you are “perfect” for just the way you are
~Take a leap of faith in yourself
~Step out of your comfort zone
~Who removes toxic people and situations from your life, so that all that you deserve and want can come in
~And most importantly, be the one who dares to love yourself the most!
What about you? How would you fill in the blanks to “be the one who dares to_________? I’d love to hear what you have to say!
As always, I’m wishing you love and light, but today I also want to challenge you to “be the one who dares,” because I know that you can!
And I’ll “be the one who dares to say that I believe in all of you!”
Wishing you love and light,
~Anne Dennish~
