"As the excitement mounted, so did the fear. I have never been more scared. But I realized, why should that stop you from doing something? Fear pushes us to do great things. Fear means you’re onto something good. And something worth living. That is a feeling that should be followed. That’s what I want to live. So I decided, it was time to follow my fear. Look it straight in the face, chase that darkness, and find out what I can do with it."
by Alyssa’s friend, Olivia.
This is exactly how the last year has felt since I decided to make my own way last spring. So beautifully articulated, I hope I get to meet her one day.
