What are you scared of??
Fear…just one word to describe an emotion that breaks even the strongest of people. Fear…the weakness of the bravest of all…what is your fear?...obvious answer ‘In what context?’ , because there are many. But the feeling is still the same. I can’t describe it; as much as I try I can’t find the words to describe fear. And I feel it a lot…
There is the fear of a particular creature. I’m afraid of Cockroaches. The brown smooth back, big moustache creatures that pop out from anywhere and everywhere and come in various sizes, big enough to whack your face when they fly and small enough to creep into your ear while you sleep. I’m not afraid of lizards or bees or rats or heck, even chickens or pink elephants [;)]. Other people are afraid of them. Somehow, we’re all afraid.
Fear of a situation. I am afraid of heights. Not very much, that I start screaming or become breathless or feel faint. But I feel a slight dizziness. I am not afraid of the dark, I am not afraid of closed spaces or of speed. Other people are afraid of them. Somehow, we’re all afraid.
Then there is life itself...we're all afraid of living!!...we wont take risks cause we're afraid of the results...we won't go against custom cause we're afraid of what people might say...we're afraid of being crazy cause people will , well, call us 'crazy'...we wont tell someone we love them cause we're afraid of rejection..we wont protest against our corrupt political parties because we're afraid of what they can do to us...and the list goes on and on and on......
Face your fear they say...At the end of it all is just one single emotion...fear..how it rules our life!!...Im not saying don't be afraid because there are very few fearless ones...im not saying im not afraid...because I am. Noone can eradicate fear...its a dominant feeling...But how about I dont let it rule my life? How about I face my fear...I can do that. I can love,I can protest,I can be crazy.
The only thing I cant do is be in the same room as a cockroach.Oh well, you cant face all your fears!!
