As children, we see ourselves as fearless—explorers, heroes, pioneers. We leap into dreams without hesitation, convinced that one day, we’ll live boldly. In our world of imagination, we cut through jungle vines in search of hidden treasure or scale towering mountains to touch the sky.
And then, life happens. Responsibilities grow, expectations tighten, and fear quietly settles in. Daily routines suck us in, the need for possessions, a house, status, maybe kids. Before we know it, fifty years have passed, and that daring, adventurous version of ourselves feels impossibly distant.
But here’s the truth: that fearless person never left. They are still inside, waiting to be set free.
