@ Can-Can. Isn’t it marvelous to recognize what is stopping you and charging ahead to something you really want. What baffles me still is how fear got such a big place in our lives. Imagine how it would be without.
Thanks for commenting.

I read a book several years ago whose title sums up what you’ve said in this entry – Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway. By allowing myself to recognize that I am afraid but that despite my fear, I could plunge ahead – I’ve moved through several blocks in my life.

@ NIcola, I never realized how much fear I conjure up unknowingly and as you say we all have fear about different things although money is winning the game.
And you are stirring again

@Bertie. Beautifully said Bertie, fear is in the mind and fright is felt in the body.
I had to laugh as your who is telling who, indeed where is the boss in all this?
For me it works to look at what is my intention?
A fearful life or a frightful life and I choose the last one.
And thanks for your encouraging words.

If only all the worry warts we know would learn to embrace fright and distract those fearful thoughts before they take root as you suggest Wilma! I am sure we all relate to fear in some form or other but often don’t recognise it. Thank you for your words of wisdom and your stories we can all relate to. Do you think I could send this one to my mother-in-law?
