Farewell to Fear
I hate fear.
 When most people are afraid, they simply choose to “avoid” the thing that scares them, but I don’t want to be afraid of anything. If I’m scared, I want to OVERCOME that fear.
 But that’s hard to do when we live in a world that’s constantly reminding us why we should be afraid.
 People confuse fear for wisdom, when really fear is just a liar that makes you comfortably miserable.
 The moment someone tries to step out and do something meaningful with their life, others will discourage and pull them down just so they can feel better about themselves.
 I’m here to combat anxiety and fear with boldness and faith. Fear can make faith seem foolish, but when you stop to think about it logically, we know this life is temporary, while also being full of endless possibility. So why would anyone waste this gift living a “safe”, boring, and mundane life? What exactly are you trying to preserve?
 Why not take the chance? Why not go after your dreams? What have you got to lose that won’t already be lost someday? The reason I strive to uplift and encourage others is because I need to believe this message for myself. I’ve always fantasized about an adventure, but it’s like I’ve been too scared to live it. Everyone around me seems happy with a perfectly normal life, but for whatever reason, that’s just not what I want. I want to live life in the way that’s going to make me most thankful for it.
 When all is said and done, I want to know that I was thorough; that I made the most of every moment, the loud and the quiet, and that I’ll never take it for granted.
 This song is about being done with fear and no longer letting it dictate your life. It’s about finally stepping out in faith and hoping for the best, because it’s worth the risk. There’s an adventure out there just waiting for you and me, and all we have to do is be bold enough to answer the call.more
