Monster under the Bed

Assume you are a child who believes there’s a monster under your bed. Write a letter to this imaginary entity expressing your fear but also your determination to get along.

Sometimes, the language of children helps us better articulate our fears. Write a letter to the monster under the bed, expressing your anxiety but also your resolve not to be petrified anymore. This whimsical yet profound exercise can bring out the imaginative narrative of fear confronting courage and allay some deep-seated anxieties of the past.
