May 5, 2014 – Thought and Poem Fear is not something we are born with. For many, reasons for fear were a direct result of what somebody did to them. Fear can also be generated by a lack of understanding of situations we face or what we may have gone through already. A result of either tends to make us feel helpless at times, and we find ourselves lacking the self-esteem needed to keep trying. And if we don’t try…we classify ourselves as failures as we rarely have the energy to complete our goals. Fear can put a roadblock on the paths we choose to take in life. However, fear can only stop your desires, if you choose to let it. Roadblocks will at times have a detour route for you to take as an alternative, so that you can continue on your journey. Even though you don’t know what you will face along the way, we can’t let fear keep us from going forward. Remember, a detour is just another way to get from point A to point B. Keep an emergency supply with you at all times. A couple cans of courage, a few bars of trust, a list of contact people to call that can help you with directions should your lose your way, and a lot of extra warm blankets that will comfort you when fear tries to make you cold and stiff so that you don’t want to continue trying. Don’t let fear stunt your growth. Dig into your emergency supply often if you have to. I have one. What about you? What do you do to overcome your personal fears that tend to want to put a roadblock on your path in life? Share your thoughts with us…Jeanne Claire Probst Fear Dont let fear hold you back, You can never make up for the what you lose because courage you did lack. You need to sit down and determine where you want to go, Your heart will guide you because it already knows. Your heart knows how you feel, It knows tour dreams, It knows what you are made of even if you should forget, It knows the strengths you have gained as it supported your steps. So if you still have dreams, dont let fear block them from view, Reach out and become the very best of what you choose. Let the world know what of you they havent seen, Embrace the life you still have left to live, and follow your dreams. Jeanne Claire Probst
