English: There is no fear, until we make it up. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Age has allowed me to back up, to view through a widened lens, to appreciate the chaos of my youth, and to make unnecessary the clarification of the present. Age has emboldened me not to be fearless, but to embrace fear for what it is. What a surprise that fear, then, loses its power and transforms into acceptance and peace.
