Do it Scared

“The cave you fear
to enter holds the treasure you seek.”
― Joseph Campbell

If I could give you the courage to take that first scary step, I would.
If I could promise you it won’t be a tough road, I would.
If I could take away the pain you are currently in, I would, but I can’t.

Only you can!

But what I can do is tell you that the journey, dear one, is so worth it.
It’s worth all the pain, and growth, and healing, and freedom, and life that you have left to live.

I can show you the way and hold your hand until you can walk on your own.
Then I can walk by your side as you reach out for those who are stumbling along behind you.

If I could give you a glimpse into the future you would not be afraid.
You would not hesitate.
You would run forward and not look back.

 Your future is so worth it.
You are worth it.
Don’t hesitate another day!

Do it scared!
