"no direction but a faith in her decision"

Most of what we are afraid of is of our own making. We are mostly victims of our own self constructed prisons of thoughts. Set yourself free from your own thinking. The Shaman stalks him/herself.

Or: On being afraid of my own ego.

Thinking Disorders—Changing your thoughts, feelings, and emotional state

Language is the brush that we use to paint the picture of our thoughts. The brush is either fine and skillfully used, or it is course and used to produce quick, wide strokes. This is an analogy for how we use language, and the effect that it has on how we feel.
