She slept with wolves without fear, for the wolves knew a lion was among them. -R.M.Drake . . I think sometimes as a military veteran I get confused when someone asks me how to help them with their confidence. . . Confidence isn’t ‘they will like me’ it’s ‘I will be fine if they don’t’. If your confidence is wrapped up in how your audience perceives you, you’re not confident in yourself, you are confident in them. Which is why when someone doesn’t like you suddenly you wonder where your confidence went. . . There are plenty of trolls out there who will find any reason not to like you, because they set out looking for it. Know who you are, and whose you are. . . Don’t get me wrong I’d be a hypocrite if I acted like I handle disrespect well- I don’t, in fact it’s the only reason I still need therapy, chocolates, Jesus, and cardio to this day. I have inner demons I know on a first name basis who are always ready to fight the moment I’m triggered, because my confidence likes to slip out of knowing who I am and my self worth, straight into my ability to, well, fight. . . Its a fire that consumes me & the only way to put it out is to either hit the gym (fight) leave the conversation (flight) or breathe & have a come to Jesus moment (freeze). What do you do? . . @nickcruzphoto tattoo by @chrisblinstontattoo #bloodsweatrespect #Heisgreaterthani #Fight #ptsd #sober #Godisgood #blessings #firefighter #blessed #fitness #motivation #growth #love #beautiful #strength #tattoos #military #veteran #titangames #thinredline #sponsorme #scoutme #muscles #savage #strongwomen #babesofig #ink #firefighterfitness
