Good morning my DU family, [View all]
Fear is such a powerful force in our lives, for good and destructive. I know for me personally, my childhood was filled with crippling fear of abandonment, the unknown, and any form of self expression, that left me searching faces and moments for the clues necessary to survive encounters by trying to guess what was wanted from me.
I write of fear, because while overcoming it is so incredibly difficult at my age, and station in life, we can certainly be reminded how important it is to give our children and grandchildren all the room necessary to become whatever they dream in life.
Please give us a day filled with opportunities to share our fears, along with our recipes for overcoming them with those in our circles of influence, such that we empower them, not cower them. Encourage them to chase, try, dare, dream and yes, to fail.
Have a fearless day dear DU influencers.
Love, John
