Willing on Wednesday

"It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate them, more manhood [or womanhood] to abide by thought-out principles rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles and an immature mind"- Alex Harras.

Are you are nice person or do you play nice to make people happy? Tell us here at A Woman in Progress the last time you did something nice just to get along with someone else.

Marvelous Monday

Willing on Wednesday

Willingness to be thankful. Sometime its easy to forget to be thankful, when you are in the mist of getting through the day. Some of us forget to take a moment for ourselves and just reflect. So I am taking today, to say I am thankful for so much. Have you taken a moment today to be thankful? If so please share your special moment with us here at A Woman in Progress.
