Dear @szuri,
What you write is not a cliché. It is something that many of us, if not all, live in everyday.
If I tell you don't be afraid, it will sound cliché because your fears are real inside of you. Your fears hijacked your mind and made you hostage to them. But no one can help you break out of there unless you want it yourself.
Within you, you have the keys to the prison doors and the power to chase out those hijackers. To refuse to submit to them. To reject their control over you.
I am sure you have all it takes to be free of your fears because your grandmother has prepared you for 23 years. She taught you how silly these fears are and how weak they are. You learned to laugh at them and chase them away with her.
Now, you can do that on your own, that is why she is not beside you anymore. She left our world after trusting that you can handle them and she is watching over you now and will be watching over you forever.
Remember her words to you? Remember her laughs with you? Remember how safe you felt in her presence? Remember how courageous you were facing your fears when she was there to support you? Remember how amazing you felt after conquering your fears
If you say yes, that means all of these feelings are still inside of you. Your grandmother is also inside of you keeping you safe and giving you courage.
I am here and I would love to support you as well. Never hesitate if you need support. Never fear that you don't deserve or think no one cares.
You can do it @szuri. You can conquer your fears. Believe in your self which your grandmother believed in too.
Hugs <3
@theleapingkoala I am lost at words :) Thank you so much for your beautiful comment and yes, you are right, my feelings are still there, keeping me safe. I guess I am not always aware.
I have to work on many issues and this platform gives me the means to do it..the courage to purge them out...and to be blessed and surrounded ( be it virtually ) with humble, good-hearted people like yourself ❤
Dear @szuri, because you are a good person, you attract good people to you :D
Try to actively remembering your precious feelings whenever fears come to attack you.
Keep building them and adding to them whatever positive feeling you have in different occasions in your life (for example, if you felt supported and encouraged by my words to you, then add it to your other feelings)
With time, you will find that those feelings become like a magical wall protecting you. You will not be alone fighting those fears. All those people who gave you part of their positive energy are standing with you, fighting for you and protecting you :D
