Love vs Fear.

I got asked recently what is something you love.

I replied with something conventional like food because it was a simple answer.

Now when I sat down and thought about the question, I thought well what is the answer.

I wrote down a list of things that I loved, simple everyday things that mattered to me.

1. The smell of salted caramel.

2. Wild Child.

3. Youtube.

4. Lush bath products.

5. Black labradors.

6. Reading a good book.

7. "Maybe okay will be our always."

8. Dancing.

9. The idea of travelling the world.

10. Having perfectly manicured nails.

11. Writing.

12. Warm weather.

13. Nicknames.

14. The sound of laughter.

15. Forehead kisses.

I then got asked what is something you fear.

I could not give them an answer.

I felt like I feared everything.

Later that night I sat down with my notebook and thought logically, well what do I fear?

I started sizing up every possible situation and came to the realization

that everything I feared I could change.

There were still Three things that stuck with me however.

1. Confrontation.

2. Failing exams.

3. Not feeling safe.

The conclusion I came to is this.

Thank the Lord that I have more positives than negatives.

Every time I have a bad day I look at these two lists. 

I realise that the things I love make me.. well... me.

As do the things I fear.

Although I wish I could go through life without fearing these things.

I realise that I wouldn't be me without them.

What things carve you into the being that you are, leave a comment below.

Go out and change the world.
