Fear...

Fear is loud and bossy.

She can be vicious at times.

And the worst of it is that

she often mingles truth with fiction.

But you must learn to challenge

the stories she feeds you.

You get to be the boss of your thoughts.

You can learn to question

whether or not

everything she tells you

is truth,

whole truth,

and nothing but the truth.

Since you have done the work

to deepen self-awareness

and self-compassion,

when she throws all your past failings

in your face you won’t crumble

because you already know you are imperfect…

AND you are beautiful

and resilient

and worthy

of building a

thoughtfully crafted life.
