Ive made a choice that as long as I’m alive im going to do my damnedest best to live my
life to the fullest. And it hasn’t always been like that. There was a time in my life
when I was really held captive by fear. And the kind of fear that you know we create for
ourselves, the kind of fear that I had created for myself. You know the narratives that we
tell ourselves that keep us from really living our fullest lives from living our full potential
you know? All the reasons why I couldn’t’ do this all the reasons why I couldn’t do
that. You know just scared. Because I hadn’t seen it done sometimes, or because everybody
around me was doing things this way. And You know I had to realize and im still always
in the constant process of realizing, that so many of us are held captive by fear. You
know we live what I like to call *** doo lives. If you think about *** and the gang
there always solving these mysteries but when they solve the mysteries theyre like getting
chased by these ghosts these quote un quote ghosts right,and then at the end they unmask
them and the ghosts aren’t real. And that’s how sometimes some of our fears are. You know
like ohmigod what will people think or nobody wont like me or nobody wont this or nobody
wont etc ect and all these false monsters that prevent us from being happy. That prevent
us from bringing creative life into the universe. There are things that we have within us that
we have not brought into existence because were scared. Because fear has become this
controlling this controlling entity in our lives. But for me you know, I decided too
that fear for me is not going to be something that gonna control me its going to be something
that’s a guidepost because wherever that fear is there’s power. When you can look
that fear in the face and no longer let it control you. When you can run towards the
fear when you can move towards the fear that’s powerful. You know its 2011 and ive been really
reflecting on that and its just time to live fearless lives. It’s time to no longer let
fear control us, it’s time to recognize that fear is a friend that weve just been
misunderstood that weve been on shaky ground with fear but fear can help us it can guide
us..to ourselves sometimes…
