Stuck

Advertisements

In the unknown and all I want to do is run

Run away from the weather changing

Run away from feeling like crap

Run away from my fear that is paralyzing me from doing anything.

But the truth is I don’t want to run away. I want to fight back, but it’s a battle that is strong and is going to take me time to defeat, as I’ve allowed my fear to rule me for so long.

  1. Nicole Smith – I am in my 40s. I am a mother of 2, wife, and I work at a local family owned restaurant. I love reading and writing. I write poetry and blog to understand myself and the world around me better.

      I’m okay, just trying to step out of my comfort zone and be more present, but being super shy triggers my resistance to hide and shut down my desire to dream big and embrace success and failure because either way, I’m living and taking action in my life.
