When Things Are Scary

Where do you go?

Life can be so uncertain

It’s never predictable

And you have no control of where you may go

Control is an illusion we believe we may have

So what do you do when things are out of your control?

Where is your trust when all is at stake?

When things are scary tell me, where do you go?

    Interesting and well written. When things get scary to me, I first sit and calm myself, then I think: why is this scary? What is it about that scares me? The dark? I like the dark. The unknown? I'm always curious so I investigate. Being left alone? I can always call a friend, write a story, read a book. And my list goes on until I can face what scared me and build my courage to face it.
