Overcomer

January 3, 2022

How did you overcome one of your fears, and what did you learn from the experience?

People can be insensitive

Judgement is inevitable 

Caring too much is dangerous

The opposite of negligible.

My eyes wet

My hands shaky

The beads of sweat

My heart so achey. 

Time it did take

Confidence is key

Happiness not faked

Growth like a tree.
