A gentleman for instance is not necessarly gentle, they often are, but when needed, will stand up for themselves, in a gentle manner, but they are certainly not vulnerable or submissive.
Courage is the ability to decide. Decide to stand up to danger, decide to be gentle. It's in the decision, not in the act itself, which requires little courage, because the decision has already been made. So if you think you are weak or vulnerable, decide to change it, and work on it from there. With every decision you will grow confidence, and with confidence you will no longer be submissive or weak, or vulnerable, but instead you'll be gentle.

Stupid Chuck Wells....(he is a client who just yelled at me because he is too much of a coward to talk to my boss!!!)
Hey Vintage - is your signature from Mirror Mask?!
Words hurt but silence hurts too!
Why is it that when I start liking something, I start despising it with equal intensity and eventually lose what could have resulted in something beyond my expectation. I think that is weak not to be able to acknowledge how you feel or not allow yourself to feel better.
Ouch...my heart...
IM too stupid for dickens:bawling:
And why would that be, Night? Not that I can believe that.
Well my real life book club ( that Im in charg of which BTW iis a bit scary becasue it all these grown up and old ladies and me) any way we are reading A tale of 2 cities :sick: ( which I kenw I hated anyway did it at school) and I just dont understand so much of it. Its fustrating and annoying I hate books that make me feel stupid.
That it has been a LONG time since I came on this site.....A lot has happened in my life in such a short while...hmmmm....
HEy rachy!!
Its been a long time how are you ??:D:D:wave:
Hm, I haven't read this. But what really helped me in such cases were books on literature that explained in a nutshell what happened in which book. A lot of things are easier to understand once you know what the public thinks that the author was trying to say and it doesn't really matter that you did not reach a certain conclusion, anyway. But it can help you reach another. Once you've seen what some people think, you can develop your own theories.Quote:
