The Fear

I used to be afraid of posting here daily.

I was afraid what I have to say would not be good enough.

I was afraid that people would make fun of me.

I was afraid no one was reading anyway.

I was afraid I’d never be able to keep up.

I was afraid it was too hard.

I was afraid I would not find the time.

I was afraid I did not have enough ideas in me to write about.

I was afraid that I would miss a day (or two, or three) and let people — especially myself — down.

I was afraid no one would care — myself included — if I did.

I was afraid I would fail.

Interestingly, I still have all the same fears. The difference now is that I face each one and do it despite them.
