Every day we have to live life to surpass our yesterday. I was afraid and the under fear of losing something few years back. Today I am not so like how I was few years back. I used to hate being alone. I am now single and happy. As long as you do something to get over fear of the past. You're doing fine. If you compare yourself with past and if you are doing even 1% better, you're doing fine. Never compare with others, compare with your past and keep moving ahead.
