Killing the Goliath

As a child my greatest fear was of darkness. I always had a problem in staying alone when its dark and was repeatedly bullied by friends and family. This fear in me prevented me from exploring places and meeting people. As it became a real threat to my survival, I decided to get rid of this evil within me. So at the age of 13, one day at 1 A.M, I walked out of my house and stood in shear darkness at a lonely place for half an hour. The time stood still and the wind kept blowing. I realized that I had won the war and have killed the Goliath in me. Today, I am a trekker and an adventure sport enthusiast.
