Less fear, more adventure
(this is a repost from a former blog of mine)
The other day I had a breakdown. I had not taken everything in account on a situation and fear, doubt and their pal “need-to-do-everything-perfect” had a party.
When the tears dried and my sense of self came back I realised that this is a pattern in my life that I need to heal. At one time in my life those feelings were the driving force in my life, also joined by their pal “do-not-get-noticed-or-people-hurt-you”.
I, however, am not that Sylvia anymore. I’m a writer and an artist. I live to make mistakes. In my mistakes I find new ways in my art. In my mistakes I find myself.
So, today I embrace the Sylvia that needed fear and his pals so tight she giggles and then I am waving goodbye to them, thanking them for their service. Many adventures await me, and I need my wings to soar into the wide open world that is my life, my art.
