Have you ever been stuck? Ever tried to get up out of a hole of despair, or wrestled with the damaging effects of fear?
Fear is a devastating beast, and if you let it linger, and think about it for hours on end, you can watch it grow.
What was once a tiny little speck of worry, has now ripened to an adult-sized mass that continues to consume and gnaw, and peck away at the center of your soul.
Then, you're just left to wallow in its dust, surrounded by the pieces of your severed heart. That heart, that once held ambition, and hope, and a voice... And a means to survival.
But, now what can you do? You're here, and helpless, and wondering what you could ever do.
Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is get out of a funk. I mean, when you're stuck, well.. You're stuck. And it only makes sense, that you have to try and wiggle your way out of there.
When I allow fear to grip my life by the reigns, and direct and inspire my actions, I continue to feed the creature of doubt.
One way to face fear head on, is to meet it with a simple first step. Because, when you're scared and not sure about your steps, you can't expect yourself to do it all at once.
But, what you can do...
Is move.
Just move.
What happens when you adjust your eyes to the thing you fear most?
You feel power filling your fallen spirit. You feel the edge of your soul easing in, hushing your insecurity.
Then, suddenly...
You're out, and you can finally press your feet upon the ground again.. and this time, it's not inside a pit of gloomy demise.
This time your stance is strong and firm, and the warmth of the light is your radiant source of energy.
Grab courage with me, and without care to fear or the absence of help around...
Take this moment...
And let the mantra of "Just move" echo in your mind.
Just. Move.
