Fierce

streamofstars:

Furious is not the same as fierce. Furious is your ego talking. Its the fight to get even, to set things right. Furious focuses on getting rid of a problem. It may look good on TV, but furious rarely succeeds because someone who is furious can’t see everything that’s actually happening.

Fury doesn’t work, but fierceness does.

Fierce is someone who is balanced. Someone who clears their internal obstacles before focusing on any external obstacles. Fierce is someone that sacrifices ego and the perception of safety in order to go to a place that frightens them. Fierce is someone who can transmute the energy of a situation by adding a positive charge to a negative one. Fierceness is someone who stays in their heart when everyone around them is winding themselves into knots. It’s about having the honesty and commitment to change a situation instead of being changed by it. Fierce is about telling yourself the truth of the possibilities and what’s at stake without feeling the obligation to “make everything okay”. Because everything will never be okay. and that’s okay. Because that’s how we continue to keep learning and growing.
