Trust

Inspire It

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 5 months ago 1 min read
Every day, all day

“Being both soft and strong

is a combination

very few have mastered.”

Not many know

how to cultivate these qualities

of softness and strength together.

When we can blend these two together,

we can face life’s challenges

with a clear vision

as to where we are going.

We are able to ‘navigate’

through our journey of life

in a balanced way.

Showing empathy and compassion

whilst staying strong to our own opinions

is showing respect,

for others and for ourselves.

Also,

others will respect us

when we ‘stand our ground’

and

stay strong towards our own principles.

This will inspire trust too.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
