"Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit."

I beleive that we are more open to these things once we belive in ourselves but I have to wonder if you must have one before you can have the other.
I think that it may, sometimes, be the experience of one of those wonders that can open a person up to believing in themselves.
I so needed to be reminded of this.

It is the the risk of revealing yourself that is difficult if you don't believe in yourself, not the experience.
How many times do we prevent ourselves from fully experiencing our lives because we are afraid of the risks, often that don't even exist.
Sheesh...I know how to spell the word "believe"...
Darn dyslexic fingers!
