It’s me again speaking out of turn on my break. (I’m officially the worst at being on hiatus.)

Today’s blog post is about fear. We all know it too well. The thing that keeps us from every leap of faith we have ever wanted to take. The thing that has kept me from lots of cool experiences and probably all of you too. I just want to take this fine day to tell you all to just drop it. I’m sick of it. I’m sick of the only thing keeping people from doing something big and important or saying something important.

I’m saying this because…

as a big sister I see my sister afraid to go to college.

as a friend I see my loved ones unable to say the things they should to others.

as a family member I see us all petrified by things we can’t control.

Do you know what this means?

THAT ALL OF US DEAL WITH IT ALL THE TIME.

It’s just toxic. We shouldn’t be afraid to say or do anything.

You know what you should be afraid of IF ANYTHING AT ALL???

Your biggest fear should be running out of time to say what you need to say or do what you need to do.

Let’s all work on something like that. Something a little more worth it. Don’t you think?

I need everyone to right now promise me we will do one thing we’re afraid of this week. (but if it doesn’t actually pay off don’t come looking for me. Seriously, I’m not a social genius. I’m a chick with a keyboard. THIS IS YOUR DISCLAIMER OKAY?)

XOXO,
