Fear isn’t something you can sweep up into a pile and discard. It isn’t physical. It hovers and haunts us in the spiritual realm. It attacks us in the unseen. So bringing it out in plain sight in the form of a two-piece bathing suit helped me to touch it. Grasp it. And infuse just enough holy grit into my soul to pick the most conservative but still completely dangerous suit from a bottom sales rack and declare battle.
