strength, acceptance, courage, and wisdom
 
sometimes I get these confused. I have had the courage to change things I wish I shouldn't have. maybe wisdom should come first.

strength: the ability to get through what we know we must for the betterment of your life.

acceptance: the ability to accept things we can not change, and be ok with that and make proper decisions based on the acceptance of reality.

Courage: To stand up and try when all we want to do is lay down and die.

wisdom: to have experience with everything we need to make everything work for us.


wisdom can't come first, before the experience of life teaches us what is real vrs what we just make up to get through the day. That is why places like this are so valuable. People with experience and wisdom can help guide us to our own wisdom.
