Brene Brown wrote the “Manifesto of The Brave and Brokenhearted ” which I love. It talks about overcoming failure and owning your story. If we don’t face our fears head on, they define our lives. By being honest with ourselves and others, we are finding our courage to rise up with compassion instead of being consumed with shame and disappointment. Our lives are now so we must live in the here and now. Be patient to be the person you are meant to become . Be brave to be your authentic self by not letting bullies dominate and control you. Hide no more, pretend no more by overcoming your fear of them with truth. See this great video on 5 Life Lessons People Often Learn Too Late.
