Have you ever wanted something (that thing you feel such passion for) to go right so badly that you stop yourself from even making a start, for fear that things won't turn out as you hope them to?
It feels as though I'm holding my breath. There's a lot going on in my head, yet I can't persuade any of my thoughts to align, nor will they assemble themselves on the page in the manner that I wish them to. So much hesitation. Cloudiness. Uneasiness. Questioning. Doubt.
So I'm stepping back, for a moment. Only then can I exhale.
I know that feeling well my friend. Im caught in a doubtful hesitation limbo, tricksy stuff.

I totally get this. For me it's that I can't seem to bring myself to even say what it is out loud, because I'm worried that the idea itself is not good enough. So you're absolutely right, the best thing to do is step back, get some perspective and just breathe. And then go for it. :) X
ReplyDeleteHope everything is okay lovely lady x
ReplyDeleteHope you're ok. This is such a great explanation for something I feel ALL the time! Hey, we're all here for a reason. It's finding our reason that's the hard part!

I often feel as though I'm waiting for something to begin. Life? A certain stage in life? For me to change? Something else? I'm not quite sure. It's a weird and sort of horrid feeling, though.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. Thoughtful and well-written. :) xx
ReplyDeleteI read something somewhere which says something like "Doubt killed more dreams than trying ever did". I hope you find the courage to try. In the meantime, taking a step back for air and clarity is a good place to start. Sending you lots of love xxxxx
ReplyDeleteI can certainly relate to this Tori! Hope you're ok my lovely. xo
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. I adore your writing style. I feel like this about a certain thing that's happening in my life right now, and I'm so anxious I have butterflies. But I think it's the thing that makes us feel most alive.
