Yesterday the verdict came down
but with a little bit of love
that it's time to stop letting
anxiety win-It's time to rise above!
Rise above the child in me who
is terrified of so many things
And let her go fly around town
I mean, grow a pair of wings
I should be able to get in my car
and drive to the store without fear
And go and get my hair and nails done
without someone I love being near
And when or if anxiety hits, to just
remember no one ever died from it, you know
Just regroup myself and pat myself
on the back for trying to grow
I've limited where I go alone for
far too long now--today, I am done
I'm hitting the stores by myself!
Can't wait 'til I can say I did it! I won!
Today I begin healing.
Time for me to rise above my anxieties.

Lovely Christina, very personal and inspiring. Way to take the first step .
Thank you! I just got back and I actually went out alone. SO freeing!
Good strong write, go forward with confidence.
I did and it was scary and freeing at the same time! Thanks for the read!
A fine write Christina.
Thanks so much! I went out on my own and (baby steps) conquered one store!
That's such a powerful write!
I hope you're hold her hand
Skipping through the town
Both showing off your wings
Then sit and enjoy some ice cream.
With freshly pampered nails of course!
Thank you for sharing your healing, it shall be passed on.
Thanks Dan! I just got back from town. Conquered one store-baby steps! Thanks so much for your support and kind review! The hair and nails thing are next...LOL
Then you will sparkle as much as we all think you do already
Awww! SO much appreciated!! Thanks for the smile!
Hold these strong thoughts, Christina ... kick anxiety in the butt! Well expressed poem of courage!
Well, I just got back. Baby steps I suppose. Thanks so much for your encouragement!!
I am really proud of you Christina! For actually doing it and for writing this great poem about it.
You DID rise above, and there is no way back!!! You now have your wings and can do it again, and again...
Yep, everyday, do something different. That's the deal, until anxiety doesn't control me--I control it. I'm so glad for friends like you and all the support I've gotten today. Thanks for the awesome review!
