“The monsters were never
under my bed.
Because the monsters
were inside my head.


I fear no monsters,
for no monsters I see.
Because all this time
the monster has been me.”
Nikita Gill

Author Harold Phifer
“Ahem! Ahem!” As I recalled, Aunt Kathy loved Uncle Dan so much, she went grocery shopping during his funeral and failed to attend his burial as well. Apparently, Ham Hocks, Collard greens, Chitlin, Fatback, and Hog-Head cheesetook higher priority over his Last Rites. Then the reverend proceeded cautiously as he introduced my mom. “Let metell y’all about my Ms. Liza. Sister Kathy kept this one close.”
“Ahem! Ahem! Ar-choo! Ahem!”
Shockingly, there was a lightening blast that rocked the building once again while dimming the lights for more than 10seconds. The crowd turned restless, took a deep breath, and then allowed Pastor Keith to resume. “I’m gonna tell y’all, they were two kernels on a cob. When you saw Sister Kathy, you saw Sister Liza.
“Ahem! Ahem! Ahem!”
“The two of them raised those boys from seeds to bean stalks. We helped nourish them right here in Zion Gate Union. Now they’re just ripe for the harvest. I hope some of you ladies can take a

hint!” For a brief moment, modest laughter filled the church. Yet, it was needed because Pastor Keith had gone into uncharted waters. No one dared to challenge my mom. Yet, Pastor Keith was speaking glowingly about her. Only a fewwanted to see where the Reverend was going. But most didn’t care to re-open that door. Church members were so afraid of Mom, no one dared to call her by name. All parishioners would go mute and head the other way, or simply hit the exits just to avoid all encounters.”
Harold Phifer, My Bully, My Aunt, & Her Final Gift

Edie Littlefield Sundby
“I love to walk. Walking is a spiritual journey and a reflection of living. Each of us must determine which path to take and how far to walk; we must find our own way, what is right for one may not be for another. There is no single right way to deal with late stage cancer, to live life or approach death, or to walk an old mission trail.”
Edie Littlefield Sundby, The Mission Walker: I was given three months to live...

Mouloud Benzadi
“Courage is summed up in four words: face danger without fear”
Mouloud Benzadi

Kamand Kojouri
“You only feel powerless because your fear has given your power to the object of your fear. Once you realise this, you can claim it back.”
Kamand Kojouri

Ian Gregoire
“Let me assure you that your fear is misplaced. If you must fear anyone, you should fear me. Nothing and no one in this world can protect you from me if you do not tell me what I want to know.”
Ian Gregoire, The Apprentice in the Master’s Shadow

“A fish that is afraid of drowning in a river is ignorant of its gifts.”
Matshona Dhliwayo

“The more dependent you are, the more afraid you will be.
The key to fearlessness is independence.
The key to fearlessness in freedom!”
Acharya Prashant, Fear: A series of discourses by Acharya Prashant

“Fear is nurtured by Caesars to remain Caesars. A man with no fear cannot be controlled. What you nurture in yourself—you become.”
Elena Levon

“Fear and guilt are the only successful weapons for the herd mentality. I will not be playing by society's rules. And there is nothing anyone can do about it”
Elena Levon

Sarah Voldeng
“We all have the ability to unveil our fears, overcome obstacles, and stretch our limitations in search of a fulfilling and rewarding life.”
Sarah Voldeng, The Art of an Enlightened Woman: A Manifesto

“Focus on what you can control, and let go of trying to change others. It's not what happens to you, but how you react that matters. Serenity comes from focusing only on what is within your power. By staying rooted in values and acting with integrity, you can maintain control and respond with dignity.”
Shaila Touchton

“Impossible? Bring it on!

I once believed it was impossible... until I proved myself wrong.

When the challenge loomed, a profound darkness filled my vision. Fear, cold and sharp, swept away every shred of confidence I possessed. My own whispers amplified the terror, echoing it in my ears. In that moment, I realized the darkness had claimed *me*. Its grip was absolute.

Amidst the whirlwind of my surrender, a gentle yet insistent voice arose: "Is this truly who you are?" Shame washed over me. Swiftly, I changed my inner chant. "Yes. I *can*," I breathed. The words, hesitant at first, gained strength with each repetition, forging resolve.

Emboldened, I faced the darkness anew. Now, I saw it for what it was: not a monstrous force, but simply the absence of light. *My* light. The challenge lost its dread, revealing itself as something needing illumination, not fearing.

I stepped forward, extending my light into the void. Joy surged as I watched the shadows recoil and scatter before its steady beam.

Impossible? I choose that word with care now. I look upward, I look within, and draw upon the strength that transforms the impossible into possibility.”
Abiodun Fijabi

Marion Bekoe
“I didn’t destroy fear, I transformed it into faith and mastered it.”
Marion Bekoe

“Stress is a tree with several branches where anxiety, fear and depression perch on them”
Davidson Prabu

“I've learned to manage fear, over the past few years. Accept its lurking presence. Sleep despite its slinking touch. Strangle it down deep when I need to.”
James Islington, The Will of the Many: Hiérarchie, T1

“Are we really afraid of fire, or is it the fact that it burns? Are we truly afraid of heights, or is it the possibility of falling and dying? Do we fear wild animals, or is it their ferocity that terrifies us? It is not us alone that are sinister, but our actions that make us so.”
Rafsan Al Musawver

Costanza Casati
“The frost in his eyes is cracking and, behind it, the green of the
first buds of spring. "When I was young," he says, "I was afraid of
everything. Atreus's hounds, Agamemnon's games, mutilated bodies,
angry slaves. Wherever I looked, I feared.
I learned to overcome those fears. I had to, or I would have died. But
something stayed inside me, a feeling of rootlessness, of floating
through life trying not to drown."
She listens though she doesn't know that sensation. Every step she has
taken since she was a child had a direction. And it brought her here.
He stares at her. "But now I know that I belong with you."
She closes her eyes and savors the feel of his hand against her own. He
doesn't know this, but he gave her a chance too, which no one else did.
He told her: Look I am as damaged as you, but here I am.”
Costanza Casati, Clytemnestra

Makitia Thompson
“The only judgement he fears is the one he refused to give himself.”
