In The Pit of my Stomach

Aug. 8, 2017

By Nikki HPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Oh fear, you silly ridiculous bother!

Just sitting there in the pit of my stomach sending doubtful messages to my mind.

What is the worst that can happen?!

You’ve lived through so much of what the ‘worst’ looks like.

Pales in comparison, really.

You have one life, so live it.

You must.

Go on. Get to the other side of it.

You can do it.

It quite literally, takes only a moment so …

One step forward.

One word spoken.

Take action …

You’ll see.

You will survive it.

You will.

Just like you always do.
