My daily draw for today is Assertiveness from The Magical Messages from the Fairies by Doreen Virtue. We see a fairy freeing herself from the boundaries of a tree. She is showing us her true self. And she should, because she is gorgeous, radiant and unique as we are all. It is not so strange I've pulled this card today because on various blogs I've been reading about standing up for yourself and reclaiming your own power.
The caption says: “Stand up for your beliefs, and only say yes if you really want to”.

My previous post about Green Tara
has touched this issue slightly.
Being assertive is not the same as being aggressive; it is merely stating your believes and opinions. When you start out with ”I….” nobody
should be offended or hurt because it is your opinion which is as valid as everybody else's.
"Assertiveness, honours everyone's rights (including your own)...: Speak your truth with love; and let go of unhealthy, old communication habits"
Assertiveness is all about being
open and lowering your shield; showing the world who you truly are. You don’t
have to apologize or feel guilty for who you are. You are worth it to be heard and
to be seen.

no one alive who is Youer than You.”― Dr. Seuss,
