Fear and Other things that hold us back

Well as I worked last night, cleaning at the coal mine, I spend my solitude thinking and talking to myself. 

I have learned so much about myself lately and continue to do so.  My fear of change, fear of failure, fear of living has kept me from growing and doing my whole life.  My fear of letting go of John kept me in an abusive relationship, kept me stifled and under raps. 

I am trying to learn to jump, let go and take risks.  I have dreams and goals and sometimes I am afraid of my own fear.  Afraid that my fear will cause me to fail. 




Ralph Waldo Emerson said “In order to learn the important lessons in life, one must, each day, surmount a fear.”
