011 Dar

I have in the past been a fearless and free-spirited person, chasing thrills and roller coaster rides...always on the go..a nomadic gypsy of some sort :). But ever since I found my one, I am no longer chasing, but instead staying still and growing more roots with every passing day. I have found something so beautiful that I am feeling the fear of losing it for the very first time, a fear that I will mess it up in some way, a fear that I will lose myself in the process...a fear that I will put myself in a box somehow. 

A song about taking that first step of full surrender and commitment, of giving myself fully to somebody and letting go of the fear of losing myself. I have discovered that in the process of feeling vulnerable, I am on my way to finding the most authentic version of myself.
