Khalil Gibran on Fear...
It is said that before entering the sea
a river trembles with fear.
She looks back at the path she has traveled,
from the peaks of the mountains
the long winding road crossing forests and
villages
And in front of her,
she sees an ocean so vast
that to enter
there seems nothing more than to disappear
forever.
But there is no other way
The river can not go back.
Nobody can go back.
To go back is impossible in existence.
The river needs to take the risk
of entering the ocean
because only then will fear disappear,
because that's where the river will know
it's not about disappearing into the ocean,
but of becoming the ocean
~ Khalil Gibran
