Dear Fear,

I am writing this letter to say goodbye. Before we part ways, there are some things I want to say. First, you’ve had control of my life for far too long. Fear, you and your associates plagued me so many times till I thought I was losing my mind. Fear of failure deterred me from going for so many of my dreams. I achieved many things, but I wanted to do much more. Fear of failure made me become my worst enemy, as I gave up instead of giving myself a chance. I accepted defeat prematurely before taking any actions or putting in minimum effort.

Projected upon me was also a fear of rejection that made me question my very worth. So many times, I chased after people and things that were no good for my peace. So many times, I felt as if I wasn’t good enough. The reflection in the mirror was hazy, as so many times, I hardly recognized who I was, constantly trying to conform to be accepted by others. Fear of rejection made me forgo values and standards that I had set for myself, settling for the bare minimum. I wish I could tell you about all the anxiety and insecurities that I experienced, but I am sure that you already know. For so long, I felt crippled by my overthinking because of fears.

Fear, while you’ve shaped much of my life, I won’t blame you entirely. I allowed you to take control of my thoughts and emotions, but not anymore. Your associates, such as fear of failure, are no longer welcome, for I have gained a brand new confidence. I am no longer worried about the things I haven’t accomplished, but grateful for those that I have accomplished. I am now pursuing those goals that I was once afraid to go for. If I succeed or not is not a concern, for sometimes, one must step out on faith. Fear of rejection no longer has power, for I have and am learning to love me, accepting and embracing the person I am, flaws and all. I know my worth and no one will ever make me question it again.

I can no longer allow you or your associates to take up anymore space. You cannot share space with my faith. So, fear, it is time to cut our ties to each other. I don’t know what the future holds, but I am not fearful. For the sake of my inner peace and happiness, I bid you goodbye as I fully embrace joy and gratitude.

Sincerely,
