"I honor every woman who has strength enough to step out of the beaten path
when she feels her walk lies in another.
Harriet Hosmer
As we travel on our journey of life, it is not easy to switch paths if we are making a major shift. Those around us may not want us to change, and we might be required to give up our comfort zone. It may seem threatening as we are vulnerable creating our new passage.
Our people skills become heightened as we find our way in a new neighborhood, office space, or perhaps needing to learn a new language. Boundaries are important until we learn the lay of the land, but they must be flexible as well. We may feel discouraged, but if we focus on the reason we felt called, we can nurture it until it takes root.
Through trial and error, our pace finally picks up with assurance we have made the right choice. It has not been easy, but every effort we invest, increases our worth. Maintain reasonable expectations, be grateful for what is being learned, and value the woman of strength growing deep inside.
