Standing Up For What We Believe In

Sometimes it's easier to follow others when we're not quite sure of our own beliefs. We let ourselves be carried away by the growing fevor and join in with enthusiasm. There is something within us that searches for a sense of belonging. But before we continue on this path, consider stepping away from the faceless crowds and taking a moment to be quiet within ourselves. We may not know exactly what we believe in at this time, but we do know what we don't believe in. Remember when taking a stand, you lead with true intentions not follow the will of others. Today, think with reason, not with emotion. Create a life that you have envisioned for yourself. Do not feel obligated to follow the path of others, for it may lead you astray. Although we may believe in the same issues, we may not go about making changes the same way. Do what feels right for you and not what others tell you to do. Let your inner spirit lead you on your journey.

Sometimes we need to wait for the right moment to ride the perfect wave...

(For those who are standing up for what they believe in,
I wish you strength in pursuing your vision,
purpose in knowing that you are doing what you feel is right,
and compassion for others who believe differently than yourself. 
May the universe keep you safe.)
