Befriend Fear (Just For A Little While)
By Jenna Grossi
Grab it.
Reach it.
Embrace it.
Hold it. Tighter.
Let it intimidate you. Let its power dilate you pupils with energy and question all that you stand for. Let it watch all your years worth of knowledge race.
Let it question your decisions, your thoughts, your endeavors, your future plans.
Rise.
Ask it questions. Challenge it as it interrogates you. Trust your intuitions.
It grows with you. It shapes you. It is strong.
Fear is a loyal friend to all. It will never be the one to abandon us first.
But, some friendships can be toxic.
Grab it.
Reach it.
Embrace it.
Hold it. Tighter.
Tighter.
Release.
