Daily Prompt: Overcome

Advertisements

I say I want to overcome something in life and I know there are steps that are needed to be taken.

But, maybe I’m just not ready to overcome them yet for the big picture of what has to happen is just too scary.

I take one step forward and end up taking two steps forward for the fear is living inside me.

The fear is so strong that the thought of overcoming this one thing just takes a hold of me and holds on so strong it’s like I’m frozen in time and just can’t shake this feeling off of me right now.

  2. Suguna Ganeshan – Easton, PA – I grew up in the southern part of India, a place called Tirupur, Tamil Nadu. I finished mine under graduation in BSC Computer science and MBA in Finance and Marketing in India. Came to the USA in the year 2000, married to a wonderful person, along with our son. My Husband's Work brought us here. Can't believe 20 yrs have passed by. I have always wanted to write, but something would always stop me from putting my pen to the paper, So suddenly one day I got so bold that I decided to blog about the new iPhone 7plus red upgrade, I got as an advanced Wedding day gift from my Husband. And here, I am thinking about what new topics I should blog about. I love traveling and taking a lot of photos. After becoming an empty nester in 2017. I decided to try and learn all things I love, like honing my photography skills, investing time in learning how to draw and make digital Art. I have recently put together an Artist store on Redbubble. I display my most beautiful pieces of Art and Photography which could be purchased as Print or on-demand products. Do check my Art Store out.

    Fear is something at large inside once own head. Sometimes they can consume you, you need to have something held out at all times weather it’s your hand or head, you will find something to latch onto , so you could overcome it. If you read my post, I mentioned that we should be our first fans and our own critics. I hope this makes some sense. I have applied this to myself and have been able to overcome a few of my fears, but not all. Good luck with trying , never give up. Some day you will overcome it one at a time.
