| I forgot to throw in there when I get overwhelmed with fear about this situation I sometimes try to breathe and remember a picture of my dad and try to draw on his strength because even tho he had his faults like everyone one thing about him was he was a very strong, protective type person who was very determined and just tended to go for whatever it was-- I tend to be the type to get paralyzed with fear or thinking and thinking- he on the other hand even if he was afraid of something usually just forged ahead, in fact one of his go to phrases he would use if something was hard was "sometimes you just have to bite the bullet"... I can recall at least two occasions where he sat me down and was saying he knew it was hard, and how life can be very hard but he would the always say "but sometimes you just gotta bite the bullet" I liked his ability to be that way, because I am so not like that left to my own I will retreat into my cancer shell like cancerians tend to do- withdraw into myself but he had a way of countering that tendency I had it helped me feel stronger |
