Fear

Fear~a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid.

You can be afraid of the dark, your shadow, change, and the truth. Fear can stop you in your tracks and keep you from moving. Spiders, snakes, heights, and enclosed spaces can turn even the toughest of men into a hyperventilating mess. And here I am...caught in the middle of fear and my sweaty palms.

I have a confession to make...I have a fear of rejection...and because I'm afraid of rejection I've been afraid to tell you that I've set up an Etsy shop. So I've been filled with the rumbly-tumbly feeling in my stomach that I get when I'm nervous because I needed to tell you so that...

a) You can check out my shop and buy something
b) You can check out my shop and tell me what you think

Only I'm not sure I want you to know about my shop and tell me what you think...because then the fear enters again and I turn into an immature middle-school girl, hoping that someone picks me for their team and I'm not the last one left.

So go take a look at my Etsy shop...I'll be sitting with the covers pulled over my head until you return....

Note: Please check back often...it takes a while to take pictures of things, write descriptions and post them. I've been hard at work the past few days on some new things, but I wanted to go ahead and let you know about the shop.
