Fully alive

I used to be afraid of feeling fear, anxiety, regret, pain, disappointment.   Now, I am only afraid of feeling nothing at all.  What I want now is to be fully alive, to feel it all, knowing I am strong enough to grow through it. I've had my  a wakening: the realization that I am responsible for my own life.  I will not wait until I am at the end of my life before I begin to live with the purpose of fulfilling my deepest desires. I will not let the fear of uncertainty and change prevent me from pursuing my dreams.  I refuse to walk through my days like a zombie.   Some people die at 30 but are not buried until they are 75. These people are dead inside, "The Walking Dead". They've given up. They've chosen to settle and minimize feeling. The problem is, when you numb yourself to difficult emotions, you also numb yourself to beautiful ones. Life is complicated, beautiful, challenging, rewarding and it should be the amazing adventure you've always dreamed...
