I wanna grow up to be like Elenor Roosevelt!!!

I was just rereading a thing I wrote while subbing last Monday that I had planned on using for a blog. Then I got to the end of the entry and found a saying I copied off the wall in the office I was working in. It was a quote from Elenor Roosevelt that said: "You can gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face... You must do the thing which you think you can not do!" So much of my life is controlled by fear. And you know the silly thing is when I have faced a fear and fought back I did feel stronger, braver, and full of confidence for a little while at least till the next monster steps out of the closet. So how come fear has such a hold on my life, why am I so insecure and lost, feeling my life is a major balancing act and I am trying on a daily basis just to keep from falling and dieing. It's tiring. Something has to change soon.

So I bagged the thing I wrote on Monday and hopefully I can use old Elenors advice and start to pick away at what I think needs to be faced.
