My first big step, one that I didn't know that will happen in such an impromptu way, and one that I had always been imaging when will it happen.
I envy and salute those mums that are able to bring their child(ren) out by themselves. Being brought up with strict house rules, and living in one now, I know that there are a lot of preparations and consequences to think of, before I can even bring my LO out, alone. So, slowly the interest and daring attitude subside. Feeling of laziness and worrisome took over.
However, today, as if the stars aligned themselves to give me a chance of lifetime. Well, why not jump on the wagon before it goes off? But of course, even with the chance given, extra care still need to be taken of. Choice of place is important, crowded place is avoided, familiar place is chosen, so that if anything happens, help will be around.
First step taken, in a caution way. Guess there will be more to come. So, looking forward for them, but, precautions still need to be taken at any one time.
Why seed of doubt can be planted so easily, while fire of confidence can be smothered as easily as well.
When we start doubting ourselves or doubt others, the doubt will only cause more severe problems and breakdown of relationships, as the seed keeps growing.
When our level of confidence goes down, everything seems to go awry and nothing seems to be the right thing to do, as the fire has been put off.
In life, don't let the seed of doubt be planted and be grown into a tree. Nor do you let your fire of confidence be smothered away but instead, kindle it and turn it into bonfire.
There's no one else, but you yourself that can do it. Stop the seed of doubt, keep the fire of confidence going.
It might not be easy. No, it won't be. Still, work on it. You can do it.
