Dear Fear,

I hate your stinking guts! That is how ‘little me’ feels about you, but adult me knows without you I will have no courage. Fear, you force me to face things head on, you push me to see my dreams come true. For a long time, I believed you were working against me, but now I believe you are working for me. Your purpose in my life is to make sure I live—live life to the fullest. You help me see why life is worth living and with you, I can see the beauty on the other side of you.

Every time I face you, it seems you are trying to stop me from loving. And then I quickly remind myself, you are simply giving me the opportunity to see my strength. I take great pleasure in showing you I can do the impossible. Although that may not be the easiest route, looking back and seeing the journey makes me appreciate you more.

I know most people cannot fathom being grateful for you and to you. But I want you to know I am. You’ve really changed my life over the years; for the better. I wish I began partnering with you sooner. I know there will be new challenges in our future, but I am confident through our previous work together la I’ve developed a bold arsenal to guide me through.

Thank you Fear. I see you from the other side.
