Paths of Fear: An Anthology of Overcoming Through Courage, Inspiration, and Love

by Connie Kerbs and Christina Hamlett

Book Overview

Connie Kerbs and Pebbled Lane Books presents this collection of stories, poems, essays, and expert advice on a universal theme. Most of all, Paths of fear is a deeper look at all that fear can teach us, especially in our triumph over it, as we find the fortitude to replace it with hope, and determination.'Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death.' ~ Max LucadoPaths of Fear is an inspirational reflection on the facing, enduring and overcoming of one of the most basic human emotions. Fear. It is an experience we all have at one time or another, to one degree or another, and one of which the lasting aftershocks can be as devastating as the original event in our life.Fear is the most primal emotion. Sometimes it is a scream of sheer terror, an alarm of mortal danger, or a simple cry for help. Sometimes it is silent, imagined, the stuff nightmares are made of. It can be a discouraging whisper saying ?you will fail? or ?you're not good enough.' Sometimes our fears are cultivated by others, or an environment that would extinguish us, if not on the outside, than bit by bit, excruciatingly, on the inside. Through these pages, we learn it is sometimes about the enduring of fear on our own terms, with dignity, even if imperfectly. The heartfelt essays also speak to how others breached their fears to become wiser, stronger and able to give and receive more love. There are no werewolves, vampires, or maniacs in masks in this light inspirational. The only monsters here are those of circumstance and innermost demons we face sometimes. Most of all, Paths of Fear shows us how others understand and have experienced fear'and how they have turned it into hope and strength.
