Boldness

I've really been challenged to think about this word today-bold. So, it is an adjective. The word "bold" describes a person or an action of a person. "That was a bold move" is a common phrase used. The realization I had today is that I can be so much more bold in my actions and in my reaction to things. My best friend challenged me to this today. He made me wake up to the awareness that I live in my own bubble. He didn't say this to me, but it made me aware of myself. I like being in the places I am "comfortable" in. I want to be forced into uncomfortable situations where I can display the characteristic of boldness. You can display a characteristic of boldness by talking to that person that usually you would not talk to, inviting someone to church even though you are normally hesitant, or even smiling and saying "hi" to someone in the hallway when normally you would look awkwardly at the side wall as you walk. I want to come to the point where people see me as a bold person. A bold person does not conceal their beliefs in a compartment in their mind forever, but shares it to the world. We only have 86,400 seconds in a day. A bold person would use their seconds being confident and courageous. That is how I would like to be.
