Self-confidence

Are you willing to pay the price of pride? 
Though it may seem the more comfortable choice,

it's merely a disguise for shame. 
Better to strip away falseness and be vulnerable
 than to 
carry the burden of pretenses.

Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding
of affection damage the roots from which love grows.
Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged
 and healed...”   ― Brené Brown
