Fear Less – 11.22.2016

image1-1

Human nature tends to fear and walk away from that which we can’t comprehend.

Because we cannot relate, or fit it perfectly inside a little box, we dissociate ourselves from it, and as such, we bind ourselves to the limits of our own beliefs; our sweet warm comfort zones.

We were conditioned and taught as children to mistrust; to fear that which is unknown and different from ourselves.

But yet, when we have challenged ourselves to overcome our fears, we have performed beyond our wildest imagination.

When we have thrown away those boxes inside our heads, and listened to the beats of our hearts, we’ve generated plenitude of magic.

When we have excitedly flung ourselves into the abyss of the unknown, we’ve created numerous unforgettable adventures.

And when we’ve engaged and shared with people from other walks of life, all with a different story to tell; each of them bringing different gifts of bold bright colors, we’ve encountered soul enriching life-changing moments; surmountable amounts of growth.

Therefore, we mustn’t settle for “just” good enough.

We mustn’t fear that which is different, because different might just be exactly what we were looking for.

Fear less. Be bold. Start living.

Have fun.

Help Each Other.

A Quiet Space In A Moment ~ 11.14.2016

Picture taken by me on 11.14.2016, Miami, FL

She desparately wondered,

And sincerely admitted to

Her fear,

Her fear of valuing their relationship too much.

Her fear that he did not cherish her the same way in which she cherished him.

She wondered if the connection she felt so real was all but in her mind. 

That the love she had for him,

Was not truly being reciprocated back in equal parts,

The not knowing.

The uncertainty.

She anguished over it.

It tortured her.

And then is when I looked deeply into her eyes and implored her,

“Let me ask you this,”

If you could hear the beats of his heart,

And see who it dances for,

Would that change the way you feel about him?

And in that quiet space of that moment,

She was changed.
