Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 I used to be fearful of failing, now I'm fearful of success, I used to like being around new people, now I don't trust them not to run from me. This just started happening about 13 years ago. I used to be more out going than I am, now. I discovered that I liked Men that year, I had just turned 40 at the time. Now I don't know what to feel about these stramge creatures, & I MEAN STRANGE, I have to be careful what I say though in here I never know who is spying on me in these groups. I don't need any awful emails sent, because I expressed my feelings about a person, which is why I can't ask for very much help with my life situations.. I go outside of yahoo for help, now. I don't really like the way I'm doing it, but I don't have any choice. I am even fearful to post very much on the other sites, but I have to get it out some way. > Fears melt away > Most of the things you fear will quickly start to melt away as soon as you > turn and face them.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Kathleen, It's just as Ralph Marston states, If you run from your fears, you only give more power to them. If you hide > from your fears, you make them even stronger. It is only by facing those > fears that you will finally be rid of them. I have found this to be so true. I know its hard, it all is but if you follow this and really work on it, your life will be much better. Don't let it control YOU. YOU control it.
