Needing to Believe...given the push

As I step out into a place I'm not used to being, an unknown feeling comes over me.  I'm walking into a space that feels strange, exciting and alone all the same time.  I don't know how to embrace it or if I should turn and run.  Some embrace this space, I've never been in this space long enough to ever embrace it, it usually scares me so much that instead of facing my fear I turn and latch onto something and get out.  What I latch on to doesn't matter at the time, good, bad, toxic, it's just there and I take hold so I don't have to face the fear that I believe is waiting for me.
This time is different...
This time I'm told to stay, I'm told to face it head on, I'm told be to strong, I'm told to find myself in this fear.  I'm told I need to stay in order to really be free. I'm told I won't be alone, he will stay with me and hold my hand.  He will help me get through it, he will be there like he always has in this space or out of it.
But for now he tells me in order to move forward, I have to face what I've never given myself a chance to.  He knows me more then I know myself, he has confidence in me, in who I am.  He reminds me how strong, independent, and beautiful I am.
He believes in me, even when I doubt myself, he knows how strong I am , that's what he loves about me.  I can do this.
I need to look deep, grab hold of who I am, and face this.  I know I can.
The unknown is a scary place but only when you let your fears conquer your strength.  Dig deep, hold tight and believe.  I can do this.
Sometimes the reminder he gives, the way he believes in me and the push he has calls to my strength and reminds me I'm better then anything I ever thought and that I can do anything.
I can do me.  I can do this.
I'm the best version of myself that I've ever been.  I can be alone with myself and be great.  It may be a small journey until I conquer the fear but I know can, he tells me I will.  He believes and makes sure I do.  Because I don't know what I'd do without his friendship or him in my life, his push, his pick me up, his words, his honesty, his bluntness.  He is true, he is real and he will always be there, no matter the person, the relationship, the situation, no matter what life brings me.  He's there...to hold me up.
