I See Fear- Part 2

I don’t need to look in the mirror to see the fear that sometimes strikes me in places so deep I am barely conscience of their existence.

It is a nagging fear that naws away at me. It is the fear of the bogeyman that could get my children. It is the irrational desire to lock them in a bubble where nothing can touch them and no harm shall come.

It is the knowledge that they think I am omniscient and I am faking it. It is the concern that somehow I am going to fail in my obligation to protect them.

And then I take a deep breath and the fear passes through me. I endure and persevere because that is what I do, what I have always done and always will. I know no other way.

My iTunes is up to around 2300 songs or so. Here is a partial list of what I am listening to this evening.
