The story of my life has been one of high expectations on me (by others) and me just following along, not wanting to disappoint, but really SCREAMING OUT inside of me for living an "uncomfortable life"-- doing what I didn't "really" want or love to do. And all the time it wasw a fear of success which, reading your post, ends up being a fear of disappointment in the way end... so it's still like a fear of failure, only in disguise or "delayed". I have a fear of failure now (for home-organization and maintenance) though; I don't think this is a fear of "success", but with other areas of what i 'could" do if I let myself dream, I fear success... for fear of other people's high expectations and what that could turn in to (time, energy, anxiety)... so, again, fear of failure even in the disguise of "fear of success". AAAWWW... But anyway. VERY thought provoking stuff. Thanks for the reminder that it's not that we have to rely only on ourselves, but that we must learn to rely on God for strength, through Jesus. (OK. Back to home-organization here...)Zarinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866854387137046160.post-61073630232958530932011-07-22T11:09:10.732-05:002011-07-22T11:09:10.732-05:00Wow, Carla! wonderful post!
