Brave. A kind heart, fierce mind and brave spirit.

Being brave is not all about doing heroic things and saving the World. It’s also facing the World and telling them that you do not see it their way. Sometimes It’s easier to act heroically by putting yourself into physical danger for somebody else than to stand up for yourself. By saving someone else the World will most probably applaud you, while by standing up for yourself will make them raise their eyebrows and shake their heads in disbelief.

Some will turn their back on you, some will try to talk some sense into you and some will call you a “lost cause” not even trying to understand why you’re doing it your way. Feeling the rejection and standing out there alone is never easy. It requires lots of bravery to be yourself and fight off all the rules and expectations thrown at you, the temptation to adjust, to belong and be accepted.

Be brave enough to believe in your own rules and path, be brave enough to ignore the murmur of the crowd. Be brave enough to stand tall and proud - like a hero - your own super hero.
