RE: 7 day positivity challenge - day 2 - Courageousness
Somewhere along the line confidence became an ugly word. I don't really know when, but a lot of what you wrote and how you presented it does make sense. I think that we as a people have lost the meaning of or never really learned the meanings of a lot of words. Even though one of the buddy up posters tried to explain humility to me, I am still working that one out in my head, and now I find confidence in the same boat of misunderstood words, that I thought I and others understood. Everyday is a learning day.

You're so right. Every day really is a learning day. At least, if we want to keep growing as people. I'd rather grow from learning than get stuck from intransigence.
And yes, many words get misconstrued from misuse overtime.
Sometimes it's worth reclaiming those words for their proper meaning.
Other times it's less about the words and more about misperceived concepts.
I personally like being assiduous with deciphering and communicating the meaning of words and concepts, yet sometimes face discomfiture in the process if it triggers others to inimically reject or shut down communication.
Be that as it may, I love communicating and philosophising, so I'll continue to do so.
Hey, thanks so much for your thoughtful comment @bashadow!
