Clubbing fear

Clubbing fear

April 2 – 2010 – I believe in clubbing fear to death. Small steps, small things. Every time you speak up for yourself. Every time you say what you mean. Every time you get help. Every time you ask for help.  Every time you get what you need. Every time you trust someone.  For some time, I’ve been introducing the frightened five-year-old to the older man running a farm and writing books. They are getting to know one another. I often say to that boy, it’s okay, I will take care of you, I can handle things. I know what I need, and you are going to be okay. The two are liking one another, two different people joined in a precious and profound way. One of the most powerful relationships of my life.

I love the idea of getting married, especially to Maria. She is a soulmate and our connection is miraculous to me. I am full of ideas today, they are pouring out of me.
