The fear of the unknown holds us all back. Why do we allow it to control our decisions and our goals? We nourish fear with our strength, day in and day out, choosing to help it grow to become more powerful. We sit quietly as it beats us down. Fear doesn’t exist. This we all know. Kick it in the balls. Get on with the show. Go for the gold. Let’s stop worrying that we’ll fail. Live life now and beg for forgiveness later. Fear can hunt someone else down now. We’re alive, so prove it.
Prompting Fear, because it thinks I won’t. This lady is brave. Thanks, DC.

Thanks for posting this. These are the words I needed to hear today: “Fear can hunt someone else down now. “

Rome wasn’t “Rome” until much later. Started off as “let’s just stop here I’m tired of walking, Rome”

A little fear creates caution, which is good. It’s just too easy to have too much fear and get paralyzed by the unknown.

Intuition, I think play a big part in keeping us safe, as adults. Yes, too easy, and should be fought against. Get your weapons out, Charles.
