To be both scared and stepping up, showing up anyway. Because I know if there’s ever to be a chance to meet my dreams, I will be scared. Knowing that feeling. I will get past it. May get embarrassed, really embarrassed. I will get past that. Mind may jumble up. And I will get past it.
And I’m going to put this out there just because it’s what’s here. Perhaps this is the age of discomfort. Perhaps comfort is over-rated.
.....Let us learn, then, from those in search of what they have not been able to find and hold in the press of humanity around them: peace of mind, gentleness of heart, calmness of spirit, daily joy. Those who are mastering the art of flying solo and soaring to their highest human potential. Who have come to understand that to know and to love and to be of value to others, they first must know and love and value themselves; that to find their way in the world, they have to start by finding themselves. …Lionel Fisher
