Why do we fear fear?

Why do we fear so many things that cannot hurt us?

We fear darkness, yet we have access to unlimited light. 

We fear ignorance, yet we have access to unlimited knowledge. 

We fear change, yet we have the potential for unlimited adaptation. 

Just like a bird doesn’t fear a snake, and a fish doesn’t fear a tree, and the water doesn’t fear the fire, we shouldn’t fear future challenges, for we will always be strong enough to overcome them. 

Grief is real,

a real teacher,

a real darkness,

a real enemy, 

a real reminder. 

Too often we are too satisfied with the stories of others.

We should put more focused effort on creating our own stories. 

We all have the potential to feel lonely when we forget how important we are to others, especially the Creator. 

Those with the most patience end up finding what they deeply desire. 

Those with the most patience end up creating the joy they need. 

How you build the confidence,

of others,

always proves, 

how much confidence,

you have in yourself.

The strongest people at anytime in anyplace always moved the biggest obstacles. 

The same is true in every relationship, the strongest relationships have always overcome the hardest challenges, together. 

If someone tells you to change, and you immediately fight it, that probably means those ideas were exactly what you need to hear. 

You do not need to take care of everything that causes anxiety. 

If something causes you anxiety — put it aside. 

Do not ignore it, but do not focus on it. 

Most of the time, it will take care of itself. 

If it doesn’t, take a deep breathe, create a plan, and move forward. 

Humility saves relationships. 

Humility means you stop blaming someone for past wrongs. 

Humility means you become who you need to become for the other person.

Humility means you adjust to their needs, wants and especially asks. 

Humility means you actively listen. 

Humility means letting go of selfishness. 

Humility means honoring yourself enough to sacrifice for the relationship. 

Humility does not mean faking it or denying your true self, it means becoming the highest version of yourself. 

Humility means applying enough courage to overcome personal desires for the good of the relationship.
