I'm feeling very apprehensive. I need to attend Parliament House tomorrow for a youth function...and I've come to the conclusion (thanks to my wife!) that it would be better to take the train in rather than drive. Truth is, I haven't used public transport for over 10 years and am loathing the very thought.
Comfort zones are just that ~ comfortable! When we face our fears head on, it can be quite an ordeal albeit a necessary one for personal growth. Most personal fears stem from one's preconceived thoughts about feeling uncomfortable. I'm aware of this, but it doesn't seem to make the decision any easier.
Well, life is a journey...and it's time that I looked my fear in the face and try the train ride, complete with an optimistic attitude. So here goes....
Genesis 26:19 (MSG) ~ "That very night God appeared to him and said, ... don't fear a thing because I'm with you."
POSTSCRIPT...
In my state of nervousness, I accidentally 'saved' this post last night instead of publishing it.
So I can report back here now that everything went well on the train today; no wrong trains or platforms, no delays. Overall, no need to fear public transport!

Tim, You don't know what you are missing! We use public transport quite a lot these days (it's cheaper) and the entertainment is great! Fashions, mobile phone conversations for all to hear, no traffic to worry about - overlook the teenagers who put their feet up on the seats - and the journey is great. Do it more often!
