THE COURAGE TO WALK AWAY

The Courage to walk away. It takes a tremendous amount of strength and courage to walk away from a failed relationship. Finding that Inner strength to walk away from the comfortable "known" and to risk the scary "unknown." We all have stories about facing adversity in our lives. Have you chosen to just give up or have you chosen to stand up. For me personally, Leaving my second Marriage was one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make. It took me two years to actually pluck up the Courage to leave. We fall we get up, we learn, we live, we face our fears, we human not perfect. I thank God each day for this wonderful gift that I am alive and well to share my story with others. Today, I can smile and be proud of myself. I am the woman I am today because I realised my magnificent truth. I am worthy and beautiful and deserve to be treated with respect. Finally letting go of what is hurting your heart and soul takes strength and courage. Those feelings of fear, pain and guilt have been replaced with love, kindness and self-worth. I now surround myself with the people in my life that matter. A big part of my healing was learning to Love me again, it was strange at first as I don't think I had ever really "Loved Me". For the first time I can actually live life with an Open heart. I now feel like I actually have a purpose to life and that feeling is amazing. My heart goes out to those struggling, I pray that you to listen to that voice inside and find the courage and strength to make the Change.
