What is your greatest fear?

You know the one—the one that keeps you up at night, wide awake, unable to fall asleep because anxious thoughts of it coming true swirl around in your brain.

What is your deepest fear?

You know the kind—the kind of fear that pops into your mind and then never leaves. The kind of fear that starts with a small, itty-bitty idea and then grows into a full-blown panic attack because you actually have begun to believe that the fear is going to come true.

Let’s be completely honest. If you are anything like me, you don’t even want to take the chance of naming your fear out loud. Why? Well, because there is a tiny voice inside of you that tells you if you say it out loud, you just might jinx yourself. God fearing, God trusting, and God believing though you are, you will not take any chances when it comes to your greatest fear. Your greatest fear is your holy grail. It’s yours to keep and obsess over, and you feel like there is simply nothing you can do about it.

Your fear just is. It’s part of you, and you have come to accept it. Live with it. Cope with it.
