Fears? What are they, and why do they have such a powerful effect on our lives? Are we always aware that they are even there, and at what point to we decide to overcome them?
I have always wanted to travel the world like a free soul. I have dreams of circling the globe in a boat or trekking across continents with the bare minimums. This split personality that I inhibit is crying to come out. Especially since I have Europe in my backyard right now. I could visit so many amazing places, but I am afraid. The world is so expansive and I don't want to miss any of its wonders. I think travelling alone will let me see everything I want to, but I am afraid of getting lost....
When I was five years old, my mother and I were shopping at Wal*Mart. As I wandered off to look at something that caught my eye, I quickly realized she was no longer nearby. I panicked to say the least. I ran up and down every aisle and ended up collapsing on the floor crying. A stranger stopped and helped me; they took me to the help counter and I was able to have her called on the PA system. Ever since this scary day, I have had serious anxiety from the feeling of being lost. I always like to know where and what I'm doing at all times.
My level of control over my life has become a bit restraining because I know that I won't always be able to keep it. If I want to find freedom from my fears, I will have to get lost and enjoy it. With my fall break coming up in three days, I plan to travel around Switzerland and France... and maybe some other places. I think this is just the beginning, but I am so nervous.
Lana Del Rey's Ride is a good lead to this adventure and I hope to accomplish something like this in my life. I think it's important that I let loose and enjoy the moment more.
PEACE
