Praise to the Lord! I have had one of my fears eased a little. I have a great fear of going to unfamiliar areas unless I know EXACTLY how to get there and home again. This may seem silly to most people but to me this fear is VERY real. I avoid going to certain places and have missed a lot. Yesterday I needed to report for jury duty in East Los Angeles where I have never been. It was not the jury duty itself, but how to get there and home again. I dreaded this for weeks. I searched mapquest for a way to get there without freeways(another of my fears)with no luck. My husband(love of my life) suggested taking a bus. I was scared because I did not want to get lost. I have been in California for 40 years and have never taken a bus. We found out the schedule and he rode the bus down to the courthouse with me. He took the bus home. When I was through I took the bus home. I then felt a certain freedom that I could now go to places farther from my home. Again to most people this would seem silly but to me my fears are real and this is somewhat of an accomplishment. Praise the Lord !!!
