You are allowed to be and do and feel and say and think and believe whatever you want ... because it's your freedom to make choices.

We can attempt to influence what you do and feel and say and think and believe by the choices we make for ourselves on what to do and feel and think and believe, but our attempts can only cause change to your choices if you allow it. There are of course, a few exceptions to that rule...but very few.

So, I will tell you these are my choices when I think of you:

You are sweet and kind and full of compassion
I would hate for someone so pure to choose to allow this world's hardships to defeat her
I would rather someone like grab on to the face of the cliff in front of them which they are afraid they might fall, yell loud as they can and hold on tight til either they gained enough courage to climb back to the surface on their own - or someone threw down a rope to help them back up.

I am confident you have the strength.
I hope you are confident too.
