Early in my career I had a mentor who told me that I would find myself in situations where fear was knocking on my door. My mentor, tongue in cheek, said, “where loose fitting pants so they can’t see your legs shaking.” Then he added, “whatever you do, face it. Don’t turn your back on it because it will show up with a different disguise. Face it early, don’t let them see your legs shaking.” He was right, I faced a number of situations where fear knocked on my door. I also followed his advice and faced it. It made all the difference.

Thank you! 🙌🏻😊
Such good advice! I have been working on overcoming fears lately and I actually created a three part journal series on it! I would love to hear your thoughts!

Great journal. You are making a difference. I understand what you are saying about learning and unlearning re healing. My experience on the healing I experienced during my grieving process was a bit different. For me, it was discovering the lessons embedded in my suffering. That did not lesson the pain, but it gave me a deeper understanding of the gift within the suffering. Have a great day. Ray
Thank you for sharing. Everyone has a different healing experience. I appreciate your kind words.
