I am learning to live and breathe in each moment as each moment that happens is special. These moments are trying to show me something, what that something is I can not say, all I can do is live, breathe and feel each of them, for these are the very things that help me to let go of the past, embrace the present and not to be afraid of the future. I feel it, waiting for me beckoning me to take that first step, that step which is the hardest of all steps, for once I do that the rest will follow and there will be no stopping or turning back.
I wonder what I am afraid of? Is it the unknown, then with clarity, I realize I have already taken not only the first step, but many steps towards the unknown, as I keep moving forward the past begins to recede from my vision, a little more with every step. I am living in this space, this time, this moment and whether it be from joy or sorrow, I am no longer rooted to the past, I break free to move forward, wondering as my journey begins what will happen next, but not being afraid any longer.

Fear can be very instrumental in keeping you stuck in situations and places for longer than you should be there...but the gift side of fear is a very powerful motivator for change...the trick is figuring out how to harness it's energy and use this to push yourself forward. Also...it is said that fear is excitement without the breath...Remember to not breathe so shallow when you experience fear...breathe deeply and change yourself.
(I sound SO wise don't I?!?!?)
Sadie, not only do you sound wise, but you are wise (which is why we are friends). Thank you for being there and helping through the last several months :)
Do not be discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward.
The greatest barrier to success is the fear of failure so don't be afraid to take a step forward.
