Fear of the unknown
Fear of failure
Fear of success
Fear holding us in place
Keeping us from moving ahead
Keeping us from stepping back
How do we defeat the fear?
Overcome that which hold us back?
How do we learn to trust once more?
When all we feel is fear of being hurt.
How do we forget the past?
Forget that which taught us to fear
How do we learn to move on?
Learn to once again feel free
Free to try the unknown
Free to risk either failure or success
Free to live with either without
once more learning to fear.
Free Just to be!
