Bit by Bit - Chapter 2, Part 4

Trey Smith


Day after day they use their minds in strife, sometimes grandiose, sometimes sly, sometimes petty. Their little fears are mean and trembly; their great fears are stunned and overwhelming.
~ Burton Watson translation ~
Anxiety can be a great demon!  Little worries snowball into monsters of gigantic proportions.  Unknown variables take on a persona of my own making and become fixed and rigid.  Before I know it, I'm a bundle of nerves.  I have created a phantom that I can't seem to escape from.
