Am I Good Enough?

I am going to talk about growing up and about how we need courage and hope daily.  We all have been little, and we all had a childhood. Some better and some worse, but we have all experienced growing up.  Do you remember when you were five years old, and your major worry was not getting off the black lines when you were drawing? Well, I think that it has changed for all of us, we have grown. In our periods of growing up, we all have experienced the adolescence, that period when all became harder for us and sometimes we think the world comes over us.

Parents sometimes became our enemies, and we wanted to do whatever we want, knowing that we can´t. It is difficult stage in life when we sometimes lose hope and courage and we have to find ourselves through many doubts, but we not only feel lost in this stage of life. We all have a lot of insecurities that make us feel worst and helpless day to day, but the important thing is to find our place in this world, and reach the happiness, with our family, friends...to reach that important thing we need courage and hope.

We need courage and hope for everything, not just for growing up. We need it every day to face the simplest thing.  What is courage and hope? They are two important values that we need for everything, to go through difficult situations, to be faithful in our religion...  Courage is the ability to do something that frightens one; bravery. And hope is a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen. Is a feeling of trust.

I have always had the same fear: talking in public. I am still working to overcome it, and it is not an easy job. I have been dealing with it a lot of years, and thanks to courage and hope qualities I am improving. I am not done yet, but I will some day.  This is just a little one of my fears. I am a person full of insecurities, and I have to work in all of them. That is why I need willpower to overcome all the fears that blind me, that don't let me go forward in path.  We all need courage and hope to go to go beyond fears, because we are not going to overcome them the first time we try, we need to experience failure to reach our goals, so we must keep courage and hope.
