Be Fierce
Fear!
The Genesis
A very real part of my existence has been overcoming fears…
I was running, running as fast as my seven-year-old legs could carry me. My older brother and sister are running behind me yelling for me to stop. I hear them but I kept running. Running all the way around the block. Their voices fade in the distance as well as the plan we had concocted for revenge. She was after me, the neighborhood bully. I was running for my life. I ran because my siblings could not quiet the fear of another beat-down.
