(Feeling) Fear

Fight: kick off an argument.
Keep it going for days.
Never admit you might be wrong.

Flight: disappear into your
Phone, a book, your job.
Avoid the conversation at all costs.

Freeze: over-analyze.
Now you’re paralyzed.
The resolution is out of reach.

Feel the fear.
Let it burn you.

Or make a different choice to:

Stop fighting.
Stop fleeing.
Stop freezing.

Feel the fear and do
It – whatever it is –
Anyway.
