“To Fear: You are not allowed to swallow me. You will not make a home out of my heart. I am not afraid of you anymore. I welcome your presence in my life because it forces me to see myself as I truly am, a warrior—a fighter. A resilient being ready to look you in the face, and force you to watch me succeed. Over the years, you’ve been one of my greatest teachers. You’ve shown me how to get up after being forced to the ground, you’ve helped me to find my power. I am ascending past the things that have scared and scarred me the most. Nothing can stop me, not even your convincing. I was not made to shrink. I am here to take up space. I am worthy of being seen.”
