The Way I Live, All Because of Fear.

March 11, 2023 by Rikki Brase 1 Comment

Because of Fear
By Rikki Brase

She can't love, because of fear
She can't make friends, because of fear
She can't trust, because of fear
She is alone, because of fear

Fear as a condition
A horrible condition

In need of tending
In need of caring
No one tending
No one caring

No one capable of holding her,
she fears.

The way I used to fear pales in comparison to the way I experience life today. Sometimes I am shocked that I am even the same person that couldn’t leave my house, hated social settings, looked over my shoulder with every third step and constantly felt under attack and isolated. When I was there I never really thought I would get past it. I really thought this fear was something that would last for the rest of my life. I am so so grateful that I am not there anymore.

That being said, I know some people still sit here in this stuck place. Your timetable may look different, but today I hope you find the strength in God to hold onto hope.

This won’t be your forever!
