Bold

Bold.

Poet Robert Frost writes, "Freedom lies in being bold." 

The definition of bold is the ability to take risks, and to be confident and courageous. But, it is the synonyms of bold that I really love; daring, brave, valiant, fearless, and dauntless. Wouldn't it be awesome if we could face all circumstances with such resolve? 

One thing I have learned, though, is that it is easier to be bold if you are not standing alone. If your faith is strong, and you are willing to accept the support and help of others you can call yourself bold. 

This is when freedom occurs, because you are no longer held down by the actions of others. I do believe we are called to treat others as we ourselves would wish to be treated, but when we step into boldness we are free to express and act upon our truer self.

When you find yourself feeling less than courageous, reach out to others and begin living a valiant life.
