Be sure of yourself now. You have strength, experience and power. There is something you know how to do. There is a need to do it and there is an opportunity to do it as well. You are not subscribing to some grand notion by acknowledging the truth of the above. But you are kidding yourself if you think that you can just walk away from the challenge that lies before you. Someone has to sort out a certain mess. Who else is qualified, trust your judgement and take your chance.
You are softening, mellowing, deepening. Once, you would have been much harsher and sharper. You would have cut more corners, broken more rules, ignored more warnings. It is not that you are becoming cautious. It is more that you are growing sensitive. Your ability to empathise is increasing and you are better at keeping secrets. Sometimes, you wonder whether all of this is an indication of weakness, but it is, of course, a sign of strength. It remains important to trust your strongest feelings.
 Breathe in. Now, breathe out. Breathe in again. And breathe in again. Ha! You can't do that, can you? Two in-breaths in a row, is a physical impossibility. There must be an exhalation in-between. That's very thought provoking. It's like day following night, summer coming after winter, boom arriving after a bust or a relief being the inevitable resolution of tension. It's a natural pattern. The very thing you like least about a certain situation is the reason why soon, you will be inclined to celebrate.
