quote:
"Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of a genius."
thought:
essentially, it's only the thought of possible fear and failure that frightens us-- not fear and failing manifested in action & experience:
I feared riding my bike up a large steep hill, I allowed it to hinder me from beginning my journey sooner... yet, as I was venturing up the large steep hill my thoughts were set only on conquering & making it up...no thought of fear of failure because quite simply, I was just doing what I had initially feared.
In action, there is no room for fear, we are programmed to endure and thrive... which leads me to love & embrace this line from Paulo Coehlo's novel, By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept
"If pain must come, may it come quickly because I have a life to live and I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him. Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering."
