Growing self-respect includes the ability to stand up for what simply feels right. We don't have to prove anything to ourselves. If we dismiss our own private feelings, all we have left to go on is someone else's idea of reality.
This realm of inner feeling is the realm of wisdom. It is the creative part, the mysterious part, the spiritual part. It is the foundation of honesty with ourselves. In these quiet moments, we are more able to perceive what we know in our hearts. As we grow, we respect and trust it more.

This standing up is what I've been doing all week. What a great quote for hearts that would prefer that we all just get along - in a world that refuses to.
In the words of Bob Marley - "Get up, stand up!"
The foundation of honesty within ourselves. Nice.
