91. {12/21/09} I shared my frustration about a situation without attacking anyone.  I was afraid of sharing how I felt, but I simply couldn’t sit back and not say anything.  It actually turned out to be very helpful as everyone learned more about each other in the process.

90. {12/20/09} Today I went to church with Uncle Bob & Aunt Mary.  I didn’t just do what my father-in-law was doing.  I thought about it and decided for myself where I wanted to go.  I’m so glad I did too because I really enjoyed myself and my father-in-law was totally cool with it.  In [...]

89. {12/19/09} Today I flew to Florida in bumpy skies!  I was so scared until…I can’t remember what thought soothed my fears, but I remember not being afraid anymore.  It was really cool.  I’m amazed at how powerful our thoughts are when it comes to how we feel.

February 12, 2010

87. {12/17/09} I asked our house-sitter (the one I barely know) for a ride to and from the airport.  I know this sounds easy.  But, for some reason there is some worthiness stuff wrapped up in this for me.  We needed to be picked up at 7am and I didn’t want to inconvenience her.  In [...]

100 Things I Fear: trusting people

February 11, 2010

86. {12/16/09} Today I hired a complete stranger to stay in our house and take care of our animals while we are in Florida.  I found her through an email distribution list I’m a part of so it’s not like I found her on Craigslist or anything like that.  But, it’s still scary to trust [...]
