Attention To The Shadows

Attention To The Shadows

Fear attaches itself to us. It seeps into the cracks and crevices of our wounded souls and makes itself at home. Like a parasite, it feeds off of our life-force.

Moving Toward Fear

Moving Toward Fear

Our fears grow stronger when ignored or denied.  They do not resolve themselves.  They require our attention and our effort.  They must be faced head on.  If we are to overcome our fears, we must take action.  We must move toward them.  We must challenge them.  We must challenge ourselves.  Even this does not guarantee … Continue reading Moving Toward Fear
