JerzeyCate - Be Brave Enough For Today…..
“JerzeyCate” is a volunteer moderator here on the Support Network who shares her experiences and perspective to help others.
I never considered myself to be particularly brave.In fact, most of my life I suffered from anxiety and a lack of confidence.But I realized early on, that if I wanted to live life to the fullest I would have to put on a brave face and push myself out of my comfort zone.
It isn't always easy. But it's always worth it.
Then I developed, quite suddenly, a complex cardiac disorder that put me out of commission for quite a while. Things are finally stabilizing at a "new normal". I've been sidelined for too long. I've become complacent.
Sitting on the sidelines is no fun. Nothing great happens there.
Recently I've been asking myself some questions...
I have a lot of things left on my Bucket List. I need to get moving again. To push myself.
To try out my "new normal." To push through some self- imposed limits.
I'm not there yet.
There are a lot pf people with serious health issues who will tell you the process of fighting an illness changed their lives. I am one of them. This battle has given me confidence I never knew existed, kept my anxiety at bay and pushed me beyond expectations.
I've become Brave. Fighting, (literally fighting for my life) makes me push my limits and define who I am.
Scared to stop being brave. Because what will happen if I do.
No matter what I need to be brave enough for today
When I realized, I was Brave Enough... Everything Changed…

- Are you brave enough to conquer your demons?
- Are you brave enough to leave your comfort zone?
- Are you brave enough to chase your dreams?
- Are you ready for change?
