Hello all.

I am terrified of flying. I haven't flown in 12 years (I'm 24 now). I've passed up opportunity after opportunity to take incredible vacations. Last month, my two best friends alerted me that they are booking a trip to Europe, and they asked if I was interested in going. Of course, I immediately declined. However, over the past month, I've really thought about how I am not living my life, and I have decided to book the flight with them (we're actually meeting up and booking it tonight). The itinerary is London > Paris > Brussels > Amsterdam > Rome.

Although I've finally convinced myself to the book the flight, I am still incredibly anxious/nervous. My fear is deep and I'm sure it won't go away easily. I literally have a recurring nightmare about flying which I get about once a month. Like I said though, I'm determined to finally do this. I have a very personal reason for needing to go to Rome/Vatican City, and as somehow it brings me a lot of peace to know that I will be flying for a very specific purpose.

I will keep you guys updated.
