Learn to Love Life

"Because I have loved life, I shall have no sorrow to die."

-Amelia Burr


I have been pondering how to live a life without fear quite a bit lately. I am tired of being scared and making decisions based upon that fear. Fear is never a good motive. I recognized and addressed several of my fears in the last week. Yet I still fear death. I dont walk in the street because I am afraid I will get hit and die. I dont blow dry my hair next to a bathtub full of water because I saw what that did to Mel Gibson. NO THANK YOU. It seems logical to me to prevent myself from harm. Its natural to protect your life. Yet, I have to wonder how much I miss out on because I fear death. I do feel like my life is unfulfilled, there is so much still left that I want to do, DESERVE to do. Maybe this is my prod to get out there and DO! Perhaps that will help me overcome my fear of death, and learn to love life more!
