Facing Your Fear


Felt the same anxiety that he felt every morning

Why don’t we go there now?

We’ve wasted almost an entire day

Without such love one’s dreams would have no meaning

Go and try

An army is coming

The war is going to end someday

You’ll be back one day

You don’t have to do anything about it

But stand and be brave

Test your courage

The desert tests all men

You already know all you need to know

There’s life here

Stand and be brave
