Not too long ago, I asked my email subscribers to briefly describe a time in their life when they felt courageous yet conflicted, but took the leap of faith anyway.
After many years of adult life experience, I have more courage and faith to do things. Although, I still struggle with finding the courage and faith with certain things too.
I believe that I set a good example for my subscribers, but I still accept my imperfections regarding certain things. My Reaching The Finish Line subscribers and I were having a conversation and these were a few of their confessions.
My friend broke my heart. When my fiance told me that she was trying to break up our relationship, I couldn’t believe it. I have known my friend since childhood — much longer than my fiance.
I had suspicions that my fiance was not a fan of my friend. So, I thought that he was trying to separate me from my friend. After months of discussing it at length, he forced me to choose either him or my friend. I cried so hard that day. I couldn’t give him an answer.
That night, I called my friend and she finally admitted that his allegations were true. She wanted my fiance to eventually marry and wanted me to remain as her friend. I couldn’t believe that she wanted me to accept this as my new reality. Somehow she believed that my fiance was holding back from being with her because of me.
My fiance had concerns about how the relationship with her would affect the future of our relationship. Although, he had the courage to tell me about it and the faith that I would make the right decision. I’m so grateful to have him. – K. Jones
