I feared being alone... until I learned to like myself.
I feared failure... until I realized that I only fail when I don't try.
I feared success... until I realized that I had to try in order to be happy with myself.
I feared peoples opinions... until I learned that people would have opinions about me anyway.
I feared rejection... until I learned to have faith in myself.
I feared pain... until I learned that it's necessary for growth.
I feared the truth... until I saw the ugliness in lies.
I feared life... until I experienced its beauty.
I feared my destiny... until I realized that I had the power to change my life.
I feared hate... until I realized it was nothing more than ignorance.
I feared love... until it touched my heart making the darkness fade into endless sunny days.
I feared ridicule... until I learned to laugh at myself.
I feared growing old... until I realized that I gained Wisdom everyday.
I feared the future... until I realized that life just kept getting better everyday.
I feared the past... until I realized that it could no longer hurt me.
I feared the darkness... until I saw the beauty of the starlight.
I feared the light... until I learned that the truth would give me strength.
I feared change... until I saw that even the most beautiful butterfly had to undergo a metamorphosis before it could fly.

very nice. Although I fear that we forget these things since it's harder to live in these ideas than to just acknowledge them. Thanks for reminding us of these undeniable truths!
