Encouraged

Yes, courage is an
innate quality
that resides within you –
but does it not take
love and support,
encouragement –
to sometimes
draw upon
this courage?

Do you not
extend a hand,
encouraging others
to find their strength –
is it not common
to cheer
for the underdog –
is it not inspiring
to witness someone
rising above
all expectations,
finding their
strength and courage?

Are these not
qualities that you
encourage others
to find within –
even as you
may find it difficult
to encourage yourself –
is that why when
others give you
a gentle push
and cheer you on –
do you not then
draw upon
your Strength
and Courage
that waits
patiently within?

Can you be
your greatest
cheerleader?
Can you believe
in the Love That You Are?
Why wait for courage
to come to the fore –
when Courage is
Who You Are?

You have love
and support
all around you.
You are stronger
than you know.
Encourage yourself
to Be yourself –
with Strength
can you face
any fear,
with Courage
can you
find the way,
with Love
is not all
possible for you –
are you not
limitless,
possible
Love?

These are not
qualities to seek.
You need not
encouragement
to Know:
You Are Strength.
You Are Courage.
You Are Love
and so very Loved.

Be You.
Believe You.
Be Love.
