Don'T Be Afraid
Don’t be afraid
I need you to listen to me carefully when I say that you shouldn’t be afraid of the world.
You shouldn’t be afraid of the world because the world isn’t afraid of you.
It simply doesn’t have to be.
And it won’t.
But what I can tell you is that everyone has a fire inside of them.
Most do not even know that it is there.
And if you feed that fire by following and listening to what’s inside of you then that small fire will grow into the size of the sun.
And there is no way of stopping somebody like that.
It’s just not possible.
And that is something that the world can be truly afraid of.
