Dear Fear,
And what will happen if I don’t?
I wish I’d asked myself that more often than the debilitating, “What if I do, and I fail?”
What’s wrong with failing, anyway? Failure is common. What is exceptional is getting up again. All I need to do to get to victory is to try again, with a better strategy of course, but I need to keep moving forward.
What will happen if I don’t, is I will fail for sure, because I didn’t even try.
What will happen if I don’t, is I will never realise my dreams.
What will happen if I don’t, is I will carry potential like rot in my soul.
Look dude, I can’t be held back by you anymore, I have so much work to do still.
So this is farewell, and I’ve sealed it with a prayer and a mustard seed.
So then, goodbye, old friend.
And good riddance!
Fearless and fierce,
Dusty
