Inner thoughts that need to escape

I do a lot of things with optimism. If I want something, I act as though I already have it to the best of my ability. I tell myself I have it.

I don't understand why I want it to happen now.

Dear Lawdy! Grant me patience.

I don't know why I still doubt that I can really do this. I have a lot of layers of optimism over a tiny, nagging, won't-go-away bit of fear.

If the optimism is so big, why does it not stomp out the fear?

All I know to do is to keep going. And keep dreaming. Because the things I dream can come true, I just have to be open to receiving them, WITHOUT fear.

And all I can do daily is try to focus on the optimism so I may stomp out that damn fear.

But some days I am so impatient I want to explode.

  1. Isn't it amazing how an abundance of good or optimism can be so easily snuffed out by one small drop of negativity. I'll throw you some of my optimism as well, and hope that helps stomp out that bit of fear!
