Fearless

 I am afraid of disappointing my Mom, and letting my Dad. I am afraid of turning into my older sister, because she's at college and still doesn't know what she is going to do with her life. I am afraid of college because it means it is time for me to be a grown up, and I feel to young for that. I am afraid of not being perfect enough for my  grandma because I don't make it to church every Sunday. I am scared of seeing the Bishopric at church because they might ask me to give a talk and I get anxiety speaking in front of people. I am afraid of the dark. I am afraid I will always be afraid.

Alive

3 best friends, 1 car, 6 speakers, 4 windows rolled down, 1 song a song that brings them all to tears yet also makes them all so unbelievably happy it makes them laugh.

6 people, 2 boys, 4 girls, 1 house, 4 digits, 1 code that everyone seems to know and when they unlock the door they enter into a home where everyone is welcome and loved, with plenty of food for everyone.

1 phone, 2 Snapchat accounts, 39 day streak, 1 look that 2 people are hiding behind because they are 2 scared to say their true feelings about each other.

1 girl, 1,000,000 feelings, 2 eyes, 1 heart that feels every emotion, yet try's to block out any emotion because it hates getting hurt. Sometimes that 1 mind would rather feel paralyzed then feel anything. But then her heart steps in and helps her mind realize she just wants to feel alive, then nothing at all.

love

From the moment you first walked into the seminary class and we made eye contact it was love at first sight. I'm shy and too scared to talk, I said nothing. You on the other hand sat right next to me and just started talking. From the first minute it was unsure but sure. After a couple of weeks we decided to be real friends instead of just school friends. It was love at first hangout.
Soon summer came and it was time for you to leave. A piece of my heart went with you when you left. I'm still waiting for you to return it. Please hurry back.
                                     Lots of love,
                                       The girl you met in seminary.

I want to feel alive

I want to be unafraid to feel the wind in my face as I jump from a door of a plane and skydive to see the world in a different way. I want to be able to take leaps of faith and not worry about the outcome, and when they say 3 I will not hesitate for one second because I am fearless.
I want to experience Paris, every little thing Paris has to offer. I want to be undaunted in experiencing Paris. The pastry's, French bread, and of course the Eiffel Tower. I want to experience Paris in the rain at night because that is when people say you're beautiful. I don't just want to be a tourist I want to be a true Parisian.
I want to be young and UNAFRAID because without fear I can do anything. I don't just want to be anyone.
                 I want to feel ALIVE.
