Feels Good

What feels good?  Standing up for yourself feels good.  I am guilty of not doing it for most of my life.  For the usual reasons: fear of rocking the boat, fear of feeling guilty, fear of hurting someone's feelings (even though I don't feel that great,) fear of it being wrong, fear of alienating whoever...I still have some of those fears some times, but I have learned that the good feeling that I get from standing up for myself is way bigger, better, and brighter than those fears
