Fear of ‘Fears’

Fears are scarier than facing the actual challenges or issues.

I read somewhere that hearing the screams from a torture room is way torturous than actual torture.

Isn’t it strange that ‘fears’, which is just an imagination of our mind, makes us afraid of reality?

If we look back at our lives so far, there have been many difficult things, which at one point we felt would break us, but we overcame them and are present where we are.

When we have to face it, no fear is bigger than our will to face and overcome it.

But, the fear of ‘fear’ is the one I am yet to get rid of.

“What will happen if…”. This fear is one of the greatest fears, and I feel, this holds for everyone.

So, this is one of the fears I am yet to overcome.

But, there are many; I not just overcame, but conquered it.

Like, changing jobs, changing jobs in different domains altogether, changing places, like in a country like India – South, West and North.

I overcame the fear of expressing, I now express myself, it may not be in a better worded format, but I do.

I overcame the fear of expressing myself in words, whatever it may be. I don’t find myself shy in writing about anything – romance, sensitive, extra-marital, sensual and many things. I learnt to put it out the way I want it.

So, overall, it’s going well, but the only fear of “FEAR – the mind games, till the time we face it”, is yet to be conquered.
