No Fear!

We went to a potluck for Families Supporting Adoption a few weeks ago, where we eat and commiserate with one another and support each other. Jim and I are serving on the FSA board as secretaries right now. Anyway I have a mentor, Sheri, who is awesome. At first when she was assigned to me, I told her I didn't need help and kind of blew her off. But during this last meeting we sat down and talked for awhile. It was so what I needed. She told me that she got to a point in her life where she decided that she wasn't going to make decisions based on Fear. It hit me so hard. I often don't do things because I am scared, when instead I could find out more about the new thing and then decide if it is right for me. So that is my new mantra. I WILL NOT LET FEAR RULE MY LIFE! I hope you don't either. Have faith not fear!
