~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To confront your fears,
Don't behave like the Ostrich
Who will not face them.
~~~~~
He wishes them gone.
He sticks his head in the sand.
It's dark.  They've left.  Right???
~~~~~
TOTAL DENIAL.
Grab fear by its scrawny neck
And begin to squeeeeeze.
~~~~~
Make it say, "Uncle."
You have its neck in your hands.
You are in control.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I fear that Faye is right and that we have a tendency to bury our heads in the sand but then maybe those of us that see won't end up with our heads in the sand.
