F.E.A.R

After deciding that this year I will be submitting my articles, poems and short stories I stumbled on a publication that was accepting works of fiction and poetry under the theme FEAR. How ironic? the one thing that has been keeping me from submitting, because I feared the unknown and this caused me such great anxiety attacks. So in the end I decided to redefine fear and break it down into something I could feed my soul everyday to stay motivated and on the right track. So here goes nothing. I have submitted my first article of the year, I will be submitting my short stories and my poetry. I'm proud of my journey, I'm content with the place and space I'm in. IAM DONE TALKING. HERE IS TO ACTING. 

Chasing Dreams

What happened to the big eyed little girl who believed in the power of her dreams.
Suckling on her thumb and sharing her dreams of the future with anyone who would listen
"A doctor-Dj you say?"  And they would erupt into mocking laughter

But that wasn't the only dream the little girl had. She wanted to write, save lives, drive fast cars, and entertain people for a living. I loved that little girl.  She never stopped dreaming dreams bigger than reality.
It took me a while to reconnect with that little girl. I'm consumed by the fire to succeed.  To get all my plans off the ground. To just know that I'm enough. To break out of the shell that I have buried myself and my dreams in. It's time to revive and liberate  my dreams.

Fear Naught

Sometimes the burdens of everyday life catch up to us and we become miserable but there is no point wallowing in misery and self doubt, that’s a toxic and never ending cycle. The world has so much to offer, dry up your tears and open your heat to receive all of life’s blessings. Opportunities will multiply once you position yourself to receive them. Let go of the hurt. Associate with positive minded people.  Always be prepared for your take off. Forgive yourself, let go of doubts and live your life to the fullest. Invest in yourself. Seize every waking opportunity to network. Go on, live a little
