Facing it, always facing it, that’s the way to get through. Face it.

In spite of the horror, in spite of the tragedy, in spite of the weeks of sleepless nights, I'm finally alive. I'm not pretending. I feel real. I'm not playing charades anymore. I wouldn't go back to the way I was for anything. I'm really like a different person. I'm where I am, and I'm making the most of it. I know I'm courageous now. I found out I had it in me to face this. — Barbara

Fear is the paralyzing emotion that inhibits or restricts normal feelings of love, confidence, and well-being.

Make a promise to yourself that you will always choose growth over safe and dreams over fear.

You were saved by Christ to be a blessing to others and not to be a beggar. You are too loaded to fail. As such, face your fear head on and begin to shine.

Run towards the roar,’ the old people used to tell the young ones. When faced with great danger and when people panic and seek a false sense of safety, run towards the roaring and go where you fear to go. For only in facing your fears can you find some safety and a way through. When the world rattles and the end seems near, go towards the roar.
