Veronica RothI miss the fears of the past few weeks, rendered small by my fears now.
About This Quote
There are few things in life more terrifying than the unknown. When you are forced to confront the unknown, your mind goes into overdrive with worries and fears of being unprepared. Fear rises up in your body that you may not be able to handle the situation. That is why I miss that feeling of being afraid, of being unprepared.
There is nothing more terrifying than being forced to face the unknown, but when you do, it can be so freeing. No one knows what will happen when they are faced with the unknown, but if they overcome their fears, they will find a source of strength that can carry them through any challenge.
