So they say a good way to overcome fears is flooding. Now I’m not afraid of birds as such. However, I am not fond of the idea of birds flapping around my ears. I figured start with something cute like birds and then maybe warm to the idea of bugs and last but certainly not least moths. 

Oh gosh, so Jasmine let the budgies fly around the conservatory and I was sitting in this confined space and my palms were sweating and I cricked my neck trying to keep an eye on them but I survived. I’d like to say this was a successful attempt at taking my first steps. Maybe one day I’ll be able to sit there and not have to keep an eye on their every movement. And maybe one day I shall sit there with dry hands, but I’m proud of myself.
