Trust30 ~ Afraid To Do

Writing cleanses. Writing provides me with a place where I can wash my fears and hang them out to dry. Many times, writing becomes the only place I can truthfully face my fears, and then return to visit them. Passion, pain, regret, grief, desperation, trauma, helpless vulnerability ~ all of these frighten me, and all of these take presence in my writing. Writing delivers me from my fears, fears that I offer up for all to see, in the rawness of wounded moments. Writing enables me to metabolize my fears.
