My son Judah has a blood test today. He’s nervous about it.
He asked me, “Will I stop being afraid when I get older?”
I said, “You never really outgrow fear. But, if you face it with people who love you, you get stronger inside. You feel the fear, but you don’t let it stop you. That’s how you become a warrior.”
He replied, “Do you think I’m doing that right now?”
“You are doing this every day, my son,” I said.
EVERY DAY.
