A fearless Friday...grab one yourself

Hello blogger friends.  Happy Friday! 

I will share something personal.  Please don't say TMI!  There really is always a moral to my babble.    Today I had a mole removed on my back.  That mole was there since I was a child.   While being obese it never seemed much to matter if that makes sense.  Even 12 years after that ended I still wore that ugly mole on my back. 

I was so conscious of its appearance.  It kept me from wearing those great sun dresses in the summer.  I always need a bathing suit with a high back and the list goes on and on about my attempts to cover it up.  If I experienced all those feelings what was really going on?

I am thinking it was fear.  Fear of the procedure?  Fear of the thought of it being cancer?  For me today was a big deal.  I walked into the office with complete nervousness.  I was escorted to the room and was then told it would be a few minutes.  Talk about the nerves heating up..lol. 

The great doctor came into the room and within 10 minutes from start to finish it was gone and it the bottle for testing. 

I conquered a fear today.  A fear I have carried around for I don't know how long.  I wont say it was at the top of the fear list but it must have been there for me to have carried it that long.  With my mole removed I feel like weight has been lifted off my back literally.

We can't face all are fears at once for sure but if we chip away at them bit by bit...just imagine how light on our feet we will be! 

Now to just facing the fear of those silly small bugs that make me run away and scream..lol

Have a Happy Valentines Day Weekend!

ps...its not just about romantic love.  It could be children love, friendship love, pet love and here is one for you...LOVING YOURSELF!
