“You can never get rid of all of your fears. Some are necessary and a part of life. But most of our fears are illusory, based on risks or threats that exist only in our minds.

I used to think that if I dug deep enough to discover something sad and ugly, Iâ€™d know it was something true. Now Iâ€™m trying to dig deeper.

I want more landmarks, less landmines. I want to be grateful but Iâ€™m having a hard time with it.”
