The Theory of Relativity

we are a funky bunch of amateurs to life aren’t we?

I know I am, so this week Caroline told me she loved me. and I realized what a fool Ive been in terms of being confined by fear. Its ridiculous you know, that we are all not supposed to have this spirit of fear according to the bible. But that Ive been living life with so much fear that its held me back. I use the word crazy not to be exaggerate but to be completely honest. Like, I feel stupid for holding a part of me back.

A part of me hates being like everyone else. So I react to society by trying to be a little different. Little stupid things like abstaining from face book or falling in love while in high school. But I guess although a lot of these things are trivial, I still feared stepping into each.

I mean, look at this guy. I called this photo the theory of relativity because fear is relative. And as long as we are in fear we are stuck in reverse. No doubt this guy totally was at that airport for hours and we was stretching. He didn’t care what others thought. He just started doing whatever that happens to be. And he seemed perfectly content in doing it.

Now, going in reverse is kind of a lame thing to do. But if I needed to stretch I would think twice about doing that because of what people walking by might think. Just like I thought for minutes after Caroline told me she loved me. I thought in fear.

I sat in this box confining myself to my perception that was altered by fear. I thank God for you Caroline and your ability to cause me to rethink life. So notice the guy in the photo seems free of all the other confining box like things in the photo. Whether its like the windows or tiles. He isnt sitting inside of them.

And we shouldnt be either. I shouldnt be afraid to love or to have a facebook for any reason. Especially a stupid one like the fear of being just another teen.

it makes me cold to think of all the things Ive missed as Ive sat inside my fear box waiting for stuff to come. But what am I going to do? I have to just kind of step out. I am proud to say I am no longer afraid of love, or at least im going to try to be.

Think about it. In my fear box, Ive lived life confined by something.. something that isn’t worth losing parts of life for.
it never will be.
So my promise to myself this summer is to eradicate my fear!
woot!
then I can wear green shoes and stretch in the airport.
