The Erudite admire intelligence.
Abnegation - selflessness.
Amity - peacefulness.
Candor - honesty.
Dauntless - bravery.
So, with me being an obsessed fan an all- I've of course taken plenty of quizzes to see which faction I belong to and I can happily tell you that I'm Dauntless.
The topic of this blog is so random. Like, who even cares about Divergent? But I had a dream about it last night and it got me thinking.
I grew up being anything but brave. Thankfully, things have changed.
It is brave to hang out with people you haven't before.
(They just might end up being awesome & there's a huge possibility that you'll form a group with
the 7 of you.)
It's brave to jump of docks into freezing water.
(You might regret not doing it, so just jump.)
It is brave to not worry about heights.
(Seeing the world from a new point of view is a good thing.)
It is brave to be adventurous.
(You just might end up finding something cool like a waterfall.)
It is brave to be social even if you don't want to.
(Surprisingly, you might end up laughing a lot.)
It is brave to make last-minute trips.
(Live life spontaneously. It's more fun that way.)
It's brave to travel by yourself to do things you love.
(You'll never regret doing something wonderful for yourself.)
It's brave to make friends everywhere you go.
(Even on YouTube.)
It's brave to stand up for what you believe in.
(Even if lots of people disagree.)
It's brave to grow as a person in small ways. Large leaps begin with small steps.
(Like when you were 5 and refused to smile in front of a camera, but now are taking senior pictures.)
It's brave to perform your talents in front of people even if you aren't prepared.
(It just might make someone smile.)
It's brave to finally accomplish something you've wanted to do since you were a kid.
(Like play with sparklers.)
It's brave to try new things.
(Like skateboarding. You just might love it.)
YOU MISS OUT ON SO MUCH WHEN YOU'RE SHY.
BE CONFIDENT.
IT IS BRAVE TO LOVE YOURSELF AND SPEAK UP AND BE OUTGOING.
BE BRAVE.
(You won't regret it.)
