To me, "fearless” is not the absence of fear.
It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, fearless is
having fears. Fearless having doubts. Lots of them. To
me, fearless is living in spite of those things that scare
you to death. Fearless is falling madly in love again, even
though you’ve been hurt before. Fearless is walking into
your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. Fearless is
getting back up and fighting for what you want over and
over again… even though every time you’ve tried before,
you’ve lost. It’s fearless to have faith that someday things
will change. Fearless is having the courage to say
goodbye to someone who only hurts you, even if you
can’t breathe without them. I think it’s fearless to fall for
your best friend, even though he’s in love with someone
else. And when someone apologizes to you enough
times for things they’ll never stop doing, I think it’s
fearless to stop believing them. It’s fearless to say
“you’re NOT sorry”, and walk away. I think loving
someone despite what people think is fearless. I think
allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is
fearless. Letting go is fearless. Then, moving on
and being alright… That’s fearless too.
