Week 23~

โ€œHeart donโ€™t fail me now,
Courage, donโ€™t desert me
Donโ€™t turn back now that weโ€™re hereโ€

โ€I must stop all these doubts,
All these worries.
If I donโ€™t, I just know Iโ€™ll turn back!
I just dream of the things I am seeking.
I am seeking the courage I lack…

I have confidence in sunshine,
I have confidence in rain,
I have confidence that spring will come again,
Besides what you see I have confidence in me!โ€

Iโ€™ve been repeating these words to give myself courage, despite that fact that I rarely truly feel courageous or capable. But trying to believe is a start, right? Iโ€™m speaking it into existence.

I can be confident.
I sound like a motivational speaker who likes to oversimplify complex and difficult mindsets to overcome.
I am capable.
I can do this.

And itโ€™s not easy. But Iโ€™m very glad that I can believe that I can get to place where I can believe in myself.

*sends you some stones, not to knock you down, but for your self-love/respect/esteem/motivation to step on, so that they can receive a boost, too*

Letโ€™s go, life. Let me embrace you with stumbling steps and the best scraped knees youโ€™ve ever seen.

Have a good week, Beanies. 💖

    I totally sang those lyrics in my mind as I read them 😄

    Jack-Jack! 💙 I always thought the coolest thing about Jack-Jack isn’t that he’s a baby yet kicks ass with a ton of superpowers, but that because he’s a baby with a ton of superpowers, he has potential to develop any of them into his main superpower. I’d like to think we all have a Jack-Jack in us. Hwaiting to you too, Bams! 😊

      Yes!! I heard a bit of trivia about him the other day that I thought I had known – that the Parrsโ€™ superpowers were based off of their roles in the family. I got it for Bob and Helen, but hearing that
      Vi has force fields and invisibility powers because sheโ€™s the teen, when they usually are dealing with identity crises, being outcasts, and feeling misunderstood,
      Dash has super speed because heโ€™s the elementary schooler with that unstoppable energy and enthusiasm for things,

      and Jack Jack, whoโ€™s still growing, so his potential is unknown but so very vast and varied.

      We donโ€™t know what heโ€™s going to choose or be best at, but the fact that he does indeed have that ability to choose and hone his powers is inspiring indeed!

      To the Jack Jack in all of us!
