As I added these pictures to each other of #AngelinaJolie
- I thought to myself :... I once had someone I considered a very dear
friend tell me they feared for me.. They feared in marriage I would
conform to something unnatural to my essence ..lose myself .. my
"special"..my sensuality, my boldness, my fearlessness, my gift to not
conform or give a "F" and my free spirit .. My ability to jump off a
cliff without a second thought ..something that some around me admired
about my personality.. even if at times it was destructive to my being
...but I was scared ...scared that maybe it was true ..maybe I would
lose myself in marriage .. But then in "my truth" I saw myself from the
clearest perspective I've ever seen myself.. I saw myself In marriage ..
I realized my Husband didn't desire to change me ..He hadn't married me
for who "I could be" or as a idea .. But rather fell in love with me
for "who I already was".. And even outside of marriage - Simply put : in
this season of life I thought I would be caged... But I in my
fearlessness, I found that I was in fact more absolutely free than I've
ever been in this lifetime .. I'm still bold.. Fearless and Free
spirited .. But in a healthy way ..a way that has the ability to impact
how God has intended me to be used and the way He built me .. For every
bit of crazy lol that I've fearfully been "willing" to given up .. I've
discovered another kind of crazy :) ..lol that has always been the "same
exact" crazy I've always been, but now free willingly directed in the
way God created it to be used .. Growth and maturity is always scary..
But if you have the right perspective, you understand that it's not
about being different or even changing ..it's about being somewhat the
same ...but way better. #TheHigherBetterVersionOf Yourself ... #DontBeAfraid
.. We can live in our seemingly "old" glory.. or we can be glory..
Glory definition : Magnificence; great beauty. High renown or honor won
by notable achievements. Take great pride or pleasure in
