Whenever I can, I try to remind myself to be kinder towards others and myself. And I realized that one of the hurtful things that we do is forcing someone to overcome their fears, like telling them that "It was so easy, why can't you do it? Everybody can do it." It is hurtful because it can give us a sense that we are stupid, weak and wrong. When the truth is, most of the time our fears are irrational. Most of the time, we don't understand why we are afraid even though we are trying hard to. We all have fears and we are all just trying. Sometimes it takes us more time because overcoming fears requires understanding and acceptance. If you are afraid now, I want you to know that you are allowed to take your time to overcome your fears...
