Saying goodbye to fear

I find fear fascinating. Fear controls so much of who we are and what we do. I'm an extremely fearful person. I'm afraid of spiders, heights, interactions with people, people not liking me, etc. Writing and theatre are the two areas of my life where I refuse to be fearful. I think it's because I love doing both and want to do them for the rest of my life. Neither are things where you can be afraid of rejection. I'm learning to just say F-it and let people think what they will. You can't make everyone like you. This is something I have struggled with my entire life and am just barely starting to accept. I've spent a long time trying to make everyone like me and feeling like no does. I'm not doing that anymore. I am who I am. I do what I do. I write what I write.
