Dare to be Naive

Sometimes i wish i have more courage to face whatever problems that is thrown in front of me. i fail to do so at times and run timidly. i run and hide like a scared child at war. i was raised to hide feelings aside and be strong no matter what. You can say i am independant but i doubt so at times. There are moments when i am vulnerable and need guidance from someone.

Some thinks i am strong. Some thinks i can endure the pain. Some thinks i can solve the problem myself. Others think that i don't really need someone to lean on.

Given impression like this by people is not what i have planned. Maybe i just project certain kind of "courage" to people because of the way i speak or behave.


Maya Angelou once said,

"One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest."

i do hope that one day, i dare to be naive.
