Don't be shy you learn to fly

She's only happy in the sun

Is it weird to be afraid to be happy?
I am so afraid that I will miss something critical, like that I am terribly sick and I won't even know or that I will be so happy with someone that I won't even notice that everything is going sour.

I am so afraid that I will not be able to do as well in school if I am happy.

It scares me to be afraid of being happy (I know that just makes it worse). Shouldn't we want to, strive to be happy?

I feel like being happy would be good for me. I would follow my heart more and do stuff that truly makes me happy, which in the end would be a good thing.

I guess I am just afraid of losing control of my life. I have no idea why I see myself as on the brink of losing control... Maybe more fear and more controlling.

I guess this is just another hurdle towards keeping fear from controlling my life.

Growing up is chaotic. No one ever tells you that. Or maybe they do and I was so excited about being an adult that I didn't listen.

there are a lot of things they do not mention to anyone when it comes to growing up. thoughts like this always remind me of a quote that i do not remember the exact wording for, but it is something to the extent of, "no one said life would be easy, they just promised that it would be worth it."

you're in the second year of grad school? you have my sympathy! haha
