I feared being alone,
Until I learned to like Myself.

I feared failure,
Until I realized that I only Fail when I don't try.

I feared success,
Until I realized That I had to try,
In order to be happy With myself.

I feared people's opinions,
Until I learned that People would have opinions,
About me anyway.

I feared rejection,
Until I learned to Have faith in myself.

I feared pain,
Until I learned that it's necessary For growth.

I feared the truth,
Until I saw the Ugliness in lies.

I feared life,
Until I experienced Its beauty .

I feared death,
Until I realized that it's Not an end,
But a beginning.

I feared my destiny,
Until I realized that I had the power to change
My life.

I feared hate,
Until I saw that it Was nothing more than Ignorance.

I feared love,
Until it touched my heart,
Making the darkness fade,
Into endless sunny days.

I feared ridicule,
Until I learned how To laugh at myself.

I feared growing old,
Until I realized that I gained wisdom every day.

I feared the future,
Until I realized that Life just kept getting
Better.

I feared the past,
Until I realized that It could no longer hurt me.

I feared the dark,
Until I saw the beauty Of the starlight.

I feared the light,
Until I learned that the Truth would give me
Strength.

I feared change,
Until I saw that Even the most beautiful butterfly,
Had to undergo a metamorphosis,
Before it could fly.
