Yesterday I watched someone propose to his girlfriend on the beach. She said yes. Wow, what a moment of courage? As you know, committing to a relationship takes a lot of courage. The work of bringing your full self, the best and not so best parts of you, requires so much courage. And courage being “heart” which is your “inner resources,” your will, patience, love, empathy, consciousness, dedication, emotions and unique strengths. So much more could be written here, but hopefully you get the idea. Thriving relationships crave commitment and commitment requires courage. Each day, the opportunity to create thriving relationships is in front of me, if I choose to face the beliefs that shrink my courage and embrace the beliefs that strengthen my courage.
Commitment and Courage
