stronger & wiser

"How very little can be done under the spirit of fear."

- Florence Nightingale (1829–1910)

How do you conquer your fears?

I pray.
I meditate.
I read and I write.
I dance.

Then, even if I still feel fear, I go ahead and breathe through whatever it is and just do it. Fear is part of human nature and something that can make us stronger and wiser - if we do not allow it to paralyze us.
