Once we overcome our fear we can become our dreams…
“You can’t get through life without it.”
What is fear? Fear is something that keeps us human it keeps alive. Sometimes it gets hard to not let our fear control our life’s. To fear something can stop us from doing something we should.
In our head we can hear everything like a broken tape recorder screaming and yelling that we should overcome this fear. The thing is how do we overcome this, this little fear which hangs heavy on our shoulders? We can face it head on, we can strategize to get over it or we can hide from it. All of this is very easier said than done, people will also say get some help or either we are here to help you, you do not have to face it alone. But the thing is they will never be able to help you if they never went through the same thing. We scream for help in our own way, hoping and praying someone with the same fear will answer our prayers help me to stop scream. Then we can help each other, hold each other up and keeping each other from drowning.
We as humans have this urge this need to live. This need to survive. We cannot live our life without this need, this urge to survive. Once it is gone there is no need for us to live anymore. Why are we here then? Needless to say not fearing death and not having the urge to live is two very different things. For me I do not fear death I will accept it when it comes. But I am fighting to live, I am clinging on for dear life to that urge to keep on living. I take every day as it comes and every second is a struggle, but from what I can see it is one living and fighting for.
I sit here tonight where I finally admitted my true fear, a fear to trust people well enough to just open up to them. A new but close friend told me to just take a leap of faith, but still I am not sure if I have the true courage to do that. Yet I will take my first leap and say I have a fear of trusting and a fear of myself; another leap I took was starting to write it opens my mind and let me get a better grip on that urge to live.
Let me know what your fear(s) is/are.
I especially love this bit, " We scream for help in our own way, hoping and praying someone with the same fear will answer our prayers" for it speaks a truth we don't all acknowledge or are even aware of!
ReplyDeleteMy biggest fear is quite simply that I'll end up alone, and it seems this is the path my life is currently taking...
Yes, it is the sad truth we have forgotten to acknowledge to seek others out there with the same fear. Yet we will still feel incomplete because we have our own extent of our fears.
Deleteeven though we will never really find someone who will truly understand us, there is almost always aomeone out there to love you till the end, even if it just a friend.
