Adorable Courage • Original White Tiger Acrylic Painting

The world ahead still feels uncharted, doesn’t it?

You’re still learning, still a little unsure… Maybe you don’t feel quite ready to step into it.

That’s okay.

Take one step… then another.

You might stumble. You might make a mess of things. Your courage might be loud, awkward, impulsive, or anything but graceful.

Let it be.

You don’t have to know exactly where you’re going, or how far you can go, before you begin.

You don’t have to feel powerful yet, but look in the mirror…

You’re a tiger.

Trust the power of time and all that you accumulate along the way. Keep exploring, keep trying, keep discovering what you’re capable of.

Let the energy flow. Let your potential unfold.

Someday, when you’ve traveled far beyond where you first began, when you’ve crossed mountains that once seemed impossible to climb and reached somewhere you once only dreamed of, look back.

Look at those mountains behind you. Look at the long, winding path that brought you here.

Then look at that little tiger, still so young, so unsure, who somehow found the courage to take that very first step.

You might find that little tiger rather adorable.

Adorable Courage is an original acrylic painting by RTEM, painted in San Diego.

This little tiger also found its way onto our White Tiger Throw Blanket — a little piece of art to keep you warm wherever your adventures take you.
