Jessica
Simpson
has
confessed
she
has
been
"cowering
from
her
true
identity" and
needs
to
"face
her
fears".
The
'Employee
of
the
Month'
star
had
an
epiphany
during
her
recent
trip
to
Europe,
where
she
discovered
her
true
self.
Jessica
has
now
shared
her
new-found
wisdom
with
her
fans.
She
wrote
on
her
website,
"I
just
got
back
from
spending
some
time
in
Europe,
and
while
I
was
there
I
visited
many
museums,
and
have
been
reading
about
different
artists.
"I
was
reading
a
book
about
Michelangelo
and
there
were
two
quotes
that
caught
my
attention
-
'I
saw
the
angel
in
the
marble
and
carved
until
I
set
him
free'
and
'each
time
we
face
our
fear,
we
gain
strength,
courage,
and
confidence
in
the
doing.'
"These
quotes
inspired
me
to
write
the
below
passage.
I
hope
you
can
find
your
own
individual
meaning
in
it,
as
I
keep
coming
back
to
it
and
find
new
strength.
"Sometimes
we
are
all
so
afraid
to
be
honest
with
ourselves
because
we
know
that
honesty
will
lead
us
somewhere
off
the
path
of
the
life
we've
mapped
out
in
our
minds.
Today,
I
challenge
us
to
ask
ourselves
this
-
what
if
we
allow
our
fear
to
provoke
us
into
action?
Can
facing
our
fear
is
what
walks
us
to
somewhere
better?
"I
do
not
have
your
answers,
but
in
the
quest
to
find
my
own,
I've
discovered
somewhere
worth
travelling
to.
"In
my
life,
I
ignore
my
fears
too
often,
but
then
I'm
left
with
nothing
to
challenge
the
best
of
me.
I
just
remain
cowering
from
my
true
identity.
There
is
no
discovery."
