"The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek." - Joseph Campbell
Within your deepest, darkest fears.
That which you turn away from.
That which you are paralysed by.
That which you shy away and avoid.
These are what stand between you and your truth.
Your truth lies on the other side of fear.
When you delve deep into these murky depths.
When you stand face to face with your demons.
When instead of away from, you run towards.
These experiences not only build your character and develop your resolve.
These experiences not only teach us valuable lessons.
Most importantly, conquering these fears will reveal your truth.
They show us who we really are.
They reveal to us our true path.
Fear is not only immediately crippling and the source of great discomfort.
Fear is the road block to our purity and innate being.
Fear holds us back from our destiny.
We either allow fear to dictate our lives.
Or we walk the path paved for us by confronting fear head on.
Either way, it is a choice that we make.
Strive to live, live to strive.
