Loved this! This is something I have been reflecting on lately, how much joy I have been forfeiting in order to avoid fear. The truth is there is a lot of joy behind the things we fear. I recently read "everything that makes you fear is teaching you to have courage".

that's good! I agree. I think things worthwhile are usually on the backend of the fear of something.

I laugh because I have been reflecting lately on how I think I have had to face every one of my greatest fears. It is always liberating when I do. What is something scary? Because we are scared of it. Otherwise, it just is...and it may not even be what we thought it was from our scared perspective!

Definitely share the sentiment. I always thought it was weird that I would get nervous right before a presentation and then when I started giving the presentation, the fear kind of subsided. I decided that I'm actually kind of anxious in anticipation more than anything else.
