fear

Fear can take your life by storm and can paralyze you with doubt, anger, or hatred. It makes the future look bleak. It makes past choices choke you of all desire for a bright future.  Fear can make the present moment feel scary. Fear can take you away from the present moment and can stop you from believing in the any kind of hope for the future.  It steals your soul of this present  moment.  Today, I choose to stay out of the prison of the fear of the unknown. I choose to live in the joy of a great  future.  I choose to look at the beauty of every moment as a chance to grow into joy and hope of a bright future. I want to seed  the soul of my heart with joy, hope, and love and watch it grow into something beautiful.

I'm holding on to so many dreams and I feel like if I let them go I will never get to see them come true. I don't know if the dreams I have are right...You know when you think you know what you want, but then later it looks different then what you thought. I don't have regrets... I just have longings that I don't want to forget about because my day gets overwhelmed by agendas, the schedules of others, and day to day life. Do you ever wonder if the passion you once had will come up again? Or is this it? I know it's not, but the "what if's" start to annoy my mind!!! I get lost in them sometimes. I should BREATHE the voice inside my head says, but I panic... I can't let go... but I need to let go. If I stop and breathe maybe I can see that everything is unfolding just as it should. So here's to letting go of the dreams and I pray that they lose their grip over my heart.. and that they fly again.
