Benjani, Namibia (day 56)
I used to be afraid. I was scared of dying, fearful of the dark and terrified of demons. I found life in general very frightening. My fear controlled me and imprisoned me. Since coming to Africa I have become stronger and more resilient. It's not that I don't get scared anymore (because I do). I just don't allow fear to control me or consume me anymore. Now I can sleep in a dark tent on my own in the middle of no where. I can bunjee jump despite being crippled with fear. I can travel across the globe independently not allowing my doubts to hold me back.
It is empowering to no longer allow my fears to control me.
