SHEILA GLAVEE || Dare to Disappoint those who cannot see your light
You Cannot Live a Brave Life Without Disappointing Some People In the journey of life, there comes a point where we must embrace the truth: you cannot live authentically without disappointing some people along the way. It’s a fundamental part of self-discovery, growth, and bravery. When we choose to be true to ourselves, to follow our passions, dreams, and beliefs, it inevitably means diverging from paths others may have set for us. This departure from expectations, however, should not be seen as a failure or a weakness, but rather as a testament to our courage and resilience. The reality is, the people who genuinely care for you will never be disappointed by your authentic self. They will support, encourage, and celebrate your individuality, even when it leads you down unconventional roads. These are the people who see beyond societal norms and embrace the essence of who you are. On the flip side, those who express disappointment or disapproval at your choices are often revealing more about themselves than about you. Their expectations may stem from their own insecurities, fears, or limited perspectives. In their eyes, your bravery may be a reflection of what they wish they could do themselves. It’s important to recognize that your journey is yours alone. You are not obligated to live up to anyone else’s standards or ideals. The path to a brave and fulfilling life is paved with moments of courage, where you choose authenticity over conformity, even if it means disappointing a few along the way. Remember, the people who truly care about you will walk beside you, cheering you on, through every twist and turn. They will embrace the changes, the growth, and the evolution of your being. As you embark on this journey of self-discovery and bravery, hold onto those who lift you up and let go of the weight of others’ expectations. In the end, living authentically is the greatest gift you can give yourself, and those who truly matter will see and cherish the beauty of your true self, unapologetically living your life as you were meant to. So, dare to disappoint those who cannot see your light, and surround yourself with those who help it shine even brighter. This is how you live a truly brave life.
