You see a lot of both on Kansas City's Country Club Plaza, THE upscale shopping and dining district for this little backwoods outpost on the edge of the Great Plains.
This photo was taken after I had dropped by the Fall Harvest conference up the street, a TG event that returned to KC after a long absence. I had an interesting conversation there with a post-op woman who was a big part of the event back in the early 1990's. I mentioned how I had dreamed at the time of getting to attend one of these events, and felt if I could ever do that just once, I could be content. Doing something like that just seemed so daunting at the time. Enjoying an evening out in the ritzy Plaza district was not even on the radar, totally impossible it seemed.
Well fast-forward about 15 years. The TG event was nice, and I'm glad I dropped by for a while. The person who organized the event put her heart and soul into it and did a fabulous job. And it appeared that all who attended were enjoying themselves. These events truly are a great way to take that first step out and to build one's confidence and I would encourage anyone wanting to take that first step out to attend one. I have little doubt if I had taken that route in the mid 90's I would not have spent another 7 or so years in the closet.
That said, I know the road I ended up taking made me more independent and self-confident. I had a lot of fun going out to dinner with friends in Westport before the event and having drinks and window shopping on the Plaza after I left it. The big event I had dreamed of so many years before, well not so much. Pretty ironic.
Animal rights activists don't fret, the fur is faux (as is the girl unfortunately).

I saw the Rainbow Lorikeet often while traveling along the east coast of Australia. It is a bold, self-confident bird that feeds on flowers and nectar. If I didn't know better, I might think this particular bird was actually posing for its picture. I must confess this lorikeet is one of my all time favorite birds as I cannot resist the beautiful coloring and outgoing personality.
This small litte pony was quite sure that there's no difference to any other horse. It was so self confident and happy. A joy to watch this little wild thing!

The Nederlandse Kooikerhondje is lively, agile, self-confident, good-natured and alert. The breed is faithful, easy-going and friendly in the home. Outdoors he is a true sporting dog being keen, swift, tough, attentive and energetic. With sufficient perseverance and stamina, he enjoys working and does so with a cheerful character.
I may read a little too much into this - and thereby flatter myself - but I think at this moment the lynx seemed rather curious and cautious than self-confident and brave, as though he wasn't sure whether or not he should come any closer. But then again, maybe he was only trying to tell me that it was high time I trimmed my beard again. :o)
“They tried to stop her, but they failed miserably. They overlooked her, tried to discourage her, and sabotage her, but she persevered through it all with her head held high. They talked behind her back and plotted against her, but they didn’t realize that they were messing with an unstoppable, resilient Black Queen. She’s ambitious, intelligent, self-confident, and bold. She’s a Phenomenal Black Queen that didn’t have to compromise her integrity to get ahead. She’s genuinely happy, successful, and free to be herself. She can, she does, she wins!”

Spiritual wisdom, intuition, freedom, strength, warning, treachery -
Mainly he is attributed to great instinctive powers, intelligence, thirst for freedom, energy, and social connections, although it can also represent a threat and lack of trust.
The wolf is a self-confident animal and from a spiritual level, invites you to travel freely, accepting the changes.
There are moments in life when the wolf invites you to become a lone wolf because you need to move away from society to discover your true being.
The White Wolf is related to someone with strong spiritual connections and insight
All is not as it seems . . .
Wolf
The signification of a wolf, is one who seizes and scatters; and as in the Word beasts signify cupidities, a wolf signifies the avidity of seizing, as is also evident from the passages in the Word where a wolf is mentioned; as in Matthew:--
Beware ye of false prophets, who come unto you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves (Matthew 7:15).
And in John:--
He that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf seizeth them, and scattereth the sheep (John 10:12).
Likewise in other places (Luke 10:3; Jer. 5:6; Ezek. 22:27; Zeph. 3:3). Hence it is plain that by a wolf are signified those who seize, but here one who rescues from hell those who have been seized. The signification of a wolf is in a similar category to that of a lion, also a rapacious animal, concerning which also it is said that it seizeth the rapine, gathereth spoil, and preyeth upon prey, as is here said of a wolf; and yet in a good sense a lion signifies truth in power from good (AC 6367). It is similar with other rapacious beasts, as leopards, eagles, etc.
Time for humanity to wake up from their slumber and search for Truth - do not be seduced by the satanic that has permeated upon humanity for eons.

I went to Monrepos on Friday as it was a lovely sunny day. On my walk around the lake I met pair of Egyptian geese with a gosling, just one. That is very unusual as Egyptian geese normally have between 5 and 10 goslings. The gosling was quite self-confident and curious, s/he came quite close to check me out although the parents were rather nervous.
This is Filou every time he sees Cleo, Sethi or Fynn outside in the garden. He is often a very nervous cat, panics easily and my sister thinks he isn't ready for the big outdoors yet. Maybe he will get more self confident in a while. Self confidence is something Cleo, Fynn, Sethi and even the little Dragon all have in abundance.
Mushu the Dragon is quite self-confident now. The degree of his self-confidence depends on who he has to deal with which means that he feels like a big important dragon around Filou and like a tiny vulnerable dragon around Cleo. Fynn is somewhere in the middle, Mushu respects him but occasionally tests how far he can go. Filou doesn't seem to mind being the dragon's toy and whenever he needs a break he just goes home. For now they all seem to have found their place but you only have to look at the dragon's face to know that he will sooner or later question the status quo.
This was the dominant stag of the 2020 red deer rut, he wasn't that big but very strong and self confident, the sound of his bugling was just amazing...Forstenrieder Park, Munich, Germany
I like life full and deep, sincere and complete. At the same time optimistic and pessimistic, ironic and passionate, - and above all, self-confident, - serene.
Although Tofu loves to be outside he is not really able to relax there, not even in his own garden. There is always something going on and he notices EVERYTHING. He is more self-confident now than when he was younger but he still makes sure that he is always prepared for whatever happens. :)

"If you find yourself asking yourself (and your friends), "Am I really a writer? Am I really an artist?" chances are you are. The counterfeit innovator is wildly self-confident. The real one is scared to death."

Haupttelegraphenamt
At the beginning of the 20th century, Berlin was the most important telegraph hub in Europe. Between 1910 and 1916, the postal building supervisor Wilhelm Walter and architect Max Lehmann built the main telegraph office – a magnificent example of self-confident industrial architecture in neo-baroque style.
After the end of World War I, it was equipped to a high technical standard and housed the most modern technology available in the early decades of the 20th century. The city’s pneumatic post office took up operation in the basement of the building in the year 1916.
Today, the building houses a number of international IT companies in spacious and modern office spaces, along with two modern event spaces in the „Kutscherhof“ (coachmen’s courtyard) and the lifestyle hotel „Telegraphenamt“, where guests can enjoy an unobstructed view of Monbijoupark and Museum Island.
Berlin war zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts der wichtigste Telegraphen-Knotenpunkt in Europa. Postbaurat Wilhelm Walter und Architekt Max Lehmann errichteten zwischen 1910 und 1916 das Haupttelegraphenamt, ein prachtvolles Beispiel einer selbstbewussten Industriebauweise im Stil des Neobarocks.
Nach dem Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs wurde es technisch hochwertig ausgestattet und beherbergte die modernste Technik, die in den Zwanziger- und Dreißigerjahren des 20. Jahrhunderts verfügbar war. Im Jahr 1916 nahm im Kellergeschoss des Gebäudes die Stadtrohrpostzentrale ihre Dienste auf.
Das Gebäude beherbergt heute auf großzügigen und modernen Büroflächen eine Anzahl weltweit agierender IT-Unternehmen, zwei moderne Eventflächen im „Kutscherhof“ und das Lifestyle Hotel „Telegraphenamt“, in dem seine Gäste den Blick auf den Monbijoupark und die Museumsinsel genießen können.

Its loud, blaring song and its upright posture with its tail always erect make it appear self-confident, maybe even like a "little king". He is the only representative of his family in all of Europe and Asia, so there is little chance of confusion. Along with the goldcrest and goldcrest, it is one of the smallest birds in Europe. He is about ten centimeters tall and weighs less than twelve grams.
Sein lauter, schmetternder Gesang und seine aufrechte Haltung mit seinem stets aufgestellten Schwanz lassen ihn selbstbewusst, vielleicht sogar wie einen „kleinen König“ wirken. Er ist der einzige Vertreter seiner Familie in ganz Europa und Asien, Verwechslungsmöglichkeiten gibt es daher wenig. Mit dem Winter- und Sommergoldhähnchen gehört er zu den kleinsten Vögeln Europas. Er ist etwa zehn Zentimeter groß und wiegt unter zwölf Gramm.

During the Islamist terrorist attack in downtown Vienna on November 2, when a lone gunman shot four people and injured 23 others before he was shot dead by the police, somebody allegedly shouted out of his window: "Schleich di, du Oaschloch!"
This sentence became a slogan comparable to the slogan "Je suis Charlie" after the 2015 shooting in France, but only in German speaking countries, because it isn't easy to translate it appopriately. "Get lost, asshole" is just a very vague and imprecise translation.
The demand "Schleich di" (literally "Sneak off!") in Bavarian and Austrian German reveals the mentality of this part of German speaking countries. It implies the person addressed isn't welcome here, but it also implies the self-confident, generous proposition to avoid being given a hard time by going away immediately. It implies the feeling of strength and power. The demand itself isn't rude, it only becomes so combined with "Oaschloch". You could say so to a person who's just climbed over your garden fence in order to steal apples from your apple trees. If you say so to a terrorist who shoots people, you show this asshole how small he is.
And of course this sentence is also applicable to assholes like Donald Trump.
This was Charlie Brown at the tender age of about 4 months. He was a very self-confident and curious kitten who more or less owned the place as soon as he moved into my niece's home. When I took this photo we were about to install a cat net on their balcony to allow him to enjoy the outdoors without risk. That is something we will have to do again now as their new apartment has a balcony too which Charlie and his brother Leo will love because it allows them to watch lots of birds.
Happy Caturday !
The magpies loves the top of this dead pine tree
I can sit and watch their playfulness from my window
The magpie's mood is never surly
every morning, wakening early,
he gargles music in his throat,
the liquid squabble of his throat.
Its silver stridencies of sound,
the bright confusions and the round
bell-cadences are pealed
over the frosty, half-ploughed field.
Then swooping down self confidently
from the fence-post or the tree,
he swaggers in pied feather coat,
and slips the fat worms down his throat.

Our visitor Leo was suprisingly self-confident this time, he seemed to feel at home again immediately. I think he was happy to escape the moving chaos in his own home. On my roof terrace he headed right for the zebra grass which all the cats love. It doesn't look very zebra-esque at the moment as the stripes will only appear in a few months.
Here is Leo sitting on the stairs in my home which lead to the room where they tend to sleep whenever he and Charlie visit me. I clearly remember the times when his first reaction to me approaching him there would have been to run and hide somewhere. Now he is much more self-confident and relaxed around me and I often even have to step over him to get to "their" room.
She came in dressed the armory of love
Her hair like flames in a storm
Her lips colored by mellow oranges
Her accent hiding, a scent of lavender
Her shadow liquid like the wide ocean
Her left eye, the reunion of all angels
Her right eye, the fountain of the muse
Proud, self-confident, broken no-more by faith
Fragile, she lied next to me
Breathing softly like an egret
And I whispered to the skies
Take me now, take me now
Turn me to a million raindrops
So to fall on her and caress her
And rest all over her sacred body
For my time counts by the beating of her heart.

Fearless Girl is a bronze sculpture by Kristen Visbal of a 4-foot high (1.2 m) girl standing in a self-confident pose. It is located in New York City on Broad Street across from the New York Stock Exchange Building in the Financial District of Manhattan.
Fearless Girl was commissioned by State Street Global Advisors (SSGA), a large asset management company, to promote gender diversity initiatives and an index fund focused on gender-diverse companies with a relatively high percentage of women in senior leadership
Surprise, surprise ... It's only day two and Leo has already decided to give up sulking and enjoy some time outside on the roof terrace instead. He was quite self-confident in fact which was lovely to see. Taking photos of Charlie and Leo remains difficult as it is very hot here again and they mainly go out in the early morning and in the evening. Indoors it's too dark for good photos, especially as I have close the shutters to keep the heat out.
