What do we do to overcome fear?
The biggest fear is fear itself
Being afraid to take that first step
Or being frightened of staying in the same place...
It's like taking a dive into a pool off a diving board
Standing up there...
Frozen...
Paralyzed...
At the same time wanting time to stagnate
So that the both of you can take the plunge together
When you're ready.
But time carries on
And it's all up to you...
It's only that initial move -
Once you've flung yourself out
It simplifies instantly
And even more so when you meet the water
'Cause you've relinquished control
And follow the flow
And manipulate your movements and actions according to the breeze and the waves...
So why is it so hard to start?
Why cant we give up control when taking that first step too?

No faith, no joy in living
ReplyDeleteno love, no truth, no friendship
we don't dare to break free
from shackles and shambles of life
we say life gave us nothing
but are afraid to let go
we say fate has been unfair
but dare not we go
where it takes us!
if it just hadn't been that difficult to start!!!
