Weakness To Strengths

My goal in life is not to have any fear when I get older, that way I can make it through life easy and can enjoy what is given to me. I am not afraid of bugs, death, old age, bullies, school, violence, and myself. Within my life I only have two fears, it used to be three but that changed. The one fear that I was able to get rid of was being afraid of the dark but then I finally got over my fear and now I can walk outside in the dark. The way I was able to concern my fear was facing it and be in the dark alone, also without the help of my friend showing me that there is nothing dangerous about the dark. The other two fears that I have are snakes and falling for the special someone. I really hate snakes, but it’s a funny thing because I never use to be afraid when I was little. Just thinking back I petted a snake when I was little and I was not scared and I held the snake in my hand. But since I’ve grown up I gotten to be more scared of snakes, I think it’s because I always get attack by one when I go home. I use to be really scared that if I heard a snake on the TV. Or see on I jumped on the couch and will not touch the ground of hours until I felt safe. But now that I want to get rid of my fear I was able to tone it down a little and now I can see one, but I still get spook by it. Then the third fear its falling for someone. I told my boyfriend about this and he said that he was scared too but it’s not stopping him to love me even more. The only reason I am afraid to fall in love with someone is because in my past relationships I get hurt and it gets worst every time, but I do hope that the relationship that I am in now is different and I will learn how to love and I will give it my all. But then it is really different then my past relationships because for one he respects m, loves me for me, cares for me, and most important he actually treats me like a girlfriend. Overall I well get all of my fears out of the way, and then I will happy to live my life to the fullest.
