Can't remember who said the following but it goes something like this:
'If we did all we were capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves.'
So very true!What a wonderful story @jayna, so glad you overcame that and did the ride, and not just once at that! It is so sad what parents or sometimes even teachers unwittingly (or not) do to children. A child who is given the right encouragement from a young age will have the belief in themselves and reach their full potential without any hurdles.

That is a great expression, @lizelle. I do think we would astound ourselves completely, if we didn't come up against fear, social awkwardness, insecurity, the sense that the uncharted territories of our lives are inherently risky, and the trepidation that comes from wondering if our parents, friends and other loved ones will approve!
Beautifully said @jayna and so very true!
