Letter to myself.








Dear Hannah,
I've known you for 15 years and never before have I seen you so terrified.

I remember what you went through. You NEVER want to go through it again.

It's like you're hiking up a big beautiful snow covered mountain and you haven't even put your boots on yet.

See you could see it's beauty and want so badly to go to the top for the view.
But what if you fell.
All the way down.
And broke every bone in your body.

Okay. So maybe that's a bit drastic.

Just think to yourself.
Are you just being way too scared like you always seem to do, or are you actually sane for taking some precautions?

Love,
yourself. :]

blaaah.

So I've never written a letter to myself before. But it was fun.

I think I'm going to start posting letters on my blogger more often.

*****

I've decided that I dislike going to walmart.
For some unknown reason I find it depressing.

*****

So maybe I should stop being afraid of everything.
Sometimes I remind myself of the lady in The Series of Unfortunate Events books.
Aunt Josephine.
She's afraid of everything and lives in a house on the edge of a cliff on the brink of destruction. It makes no sense at all. I remember being so aggravated with her while I was reading it. I found myself exclaiming "idiot" several times while reading it. And I hate to think that I'm an idiot. haha Ironically being stupid is one of my worst fears.

So since it's silly for me to constantly fear everything, I'm going to make a list of everything that I'm afraid of and slowly get to the point where I can overcome most of the fears that I list. YAY lists!

I think I'll start tomorrow. after I finish my list. :]
Wish me luck.

That's a pretty cool blog! You definitely don't need to be scared of everything! Fear is definitely overrated! In a lot of ways, it keeps us safe, but common sense will do that also! Is there something so important to you here, that you are just skimming by to not get hurt? I know where you are coming from, but it's a huge relief, the day it doesn't matter either way! I think that is what everyone should strive for, but that's my sicko opinion! :) If you die, you meet God... If you live, you live to see another day come and go, to try and make an impact again... If you have no fear of death or injury, but keep common sense, then think of how much bigger your impact on the world will be, while you're alive another day! The freedom to do what you want is amazing, and I have a feeling when you get over your fears, your impact will be HUGE!
