Feeling — Nervous

You know, I’ve been feeling really nervous right now,
about what is happening, what is coming ahead,
my competence, my capabilities, my value.

It’s stunting me, this feeling, making me pause, stop.

So what is the point of it all then?

I’m unable to do anything but this right now — write.
So shouldn’t I be doing just that?

How? To each his own. You only have yourself in the end.
It is only you who can do anything about it.

Each day as it comes, right?
Just keep doing — to the best of your ability.

You know what I’m thinking? — What do you want to do?
Think.
Real Hard.
What matters? What truly matters, to you?
What will make you happy? What will keep you happy?
Be Real.
Be Honest.
Only truth will save you.
But you still have to put in the work — always!
