fear of flying

i used to be afraid to fly. my ears would hurt. a lot. i couldn't hear and all the while, when i was trying to appear like the oh so cool seasoned traveler that i wasn't, chatting people up and sipping my diet coke, i couldn't hear others. their mouths moved. i tried to figure out what was going on.
i faked what i could.
and then there was that little issue of feeling the ground abandoning my feet.
and falling back to the ground.
i got over that though.
because there were places i wanted to go. and didn't want to drive for hour after hour. or over, well, you know, oceans. so i got over it. i bought these little things called earplanes. that did wonders for my ears. and i embraced the idea of winging it with the birds.
that's the way that i feel about the ecourse i just took with kelly rae roberts. the sheer fact that i am back here, to the blog i set up for my creative bz, says volumes.
fear is one of the most powerful forces. the only one that i know that is strong is love. and i love creating. i love where that creative energy can take me. what sights it can help me see. much like flying with the birds.
kelly rae wrote a book called taking flight.
not surprising that title. at all.
the ecourse was called flight lessons. yeah, the course is over now, but the lessons will be like air currents under my creative wings. like a boarding pass to my creative life.
i am just so grateful. for everything. kelly rae. her book. her blog. her ecourse. life. my opportunities. the creative whispers and the woohoos.
just thank you.
