THE FEAR

I decided I probably think way too much than is natural or healthy for any human being.  I'm sitting here reflecting on the day and thinking where my mind has been. If my body traveled as much as my mind did I would be so tired but, dang would I have traveled so many different places! It's hard to look back and realize if you took an opportunity you once had and did it differently your life would be completely different.  It's hard when those choices take people out of your life. You don't want to always be looking back wishing you could change it. The only thing you can change now...is right now. Sometimes losing something helps you realize you don't want to do that ever again. It makes you want to take this opportunity you have now and run with it. Sometimes it makes you want to just run away from it and not deal with anything and hopefully one day something will work itself out and you won't fail anymore.  Instead of running back 5 miles on the trail to smell the roses you missed, keep moving forward and stop the next time some flowers come up.  You'll never get anywhere if you keep running back to where you once were. I mean who knows! Maybe the trail loops back around and you'll pass those roses again. You never know. So pretty much what I'm saying is that I need to do that. Stop being so dang afraid of all the what ifs! Because they won't ever change.        I have a goal though. I'm going to let go of the fear inside of me and step by step I'll overcome my fear of failure.  My journeys to the sea are going to help me overcome my fear because both of them are things I've never done before.
Love this artist right here. Haven't been able to get enough of his music.
