Dear Friends,
I feel at times that the posts become more of a monologue, where in we express our feelings via poems/stories/photographs etc and recieve your support via the lovely comments.
But, I wish it could be more of a dialogue sometimes where we can actually talk to one another. So, here it is a step from our side to know you and share some quality time with you.
Let’s Talk about our fears.
WHAT DO U FEAR ?
Leave a Comment. Dee Kay and I would surely love to talk and share about ours and yours FEARS.
I would also request the readers to reply to others comments, so that it seems more of a bunch of friends chatting over pint of beers…
Regards
Roy
Has to be ‘Fear of failure’ and constant judgement (not that I really pay heed to it… in some small way it does affect you)
If there was no thing as ‘fear of failure’ or ‘being judged’, that would be just the perfect world, wouldn’t it?
…and of course of cockroaches… those pesky creatures.

This fear of failures makes us adamant to overcome them. Yet the most important thing is are we ready to face them…coz beyond those fears lies a person who is the best version of urself…
People will keep judging…no matter what you do…we can never be perfect for them…and we don’t need to…since it is your life and you are the one to decide how u wanna live it. Most often we do things or live the way people want us to…we sacrifice our dreams and passion in the process…why walk on the path that one has already walked upon…create a new path for urself…make ur own destiny coz u r your sculptor…carve out the best version of urself… Judging is easy but believing in oneself is challenge…

Well, I have come to understand that there is no fear in Perfect Love and that Love is the only real thing in existence; so when I find myself returning to old fears which seem consuming, I remind myself of this. My favorite passage of encouragement comes from a work I read some years back~”Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists.” If only Love is real we should never fear not having it. I believe fear to be the antithesis of love and that most of our emotional fears, those not physically present in our world, come from a sense of lack. Fear causes so much turmoil, violence and chaos. Acceptance of our humanity, including its fears, is the first step in healing the sense of lack that debilitates our forward progress as a species.

Hey there..
Don’t beat yourself for something that isn’t your fault. You took care of your husband and your children when they needed it the most. I am pretty sure they have never even thought of you as a burden.
You are a loving wife, a wonderful mother, and a beautiful human, this is what defines you and not your illnesses.

Hi lynnetteok, I have a friend who has much the same issue, except no children or husband. She tries not to accept help because she doesn’t want to be a burden to anyone. Buuuut, she’s trying to remember that when she allows someone to do something for her, she is giving them the chance to experience the blessing of helping. I’m also reminded of my great grandmother, and my husband’s grandmother. Both of these women were confined to bed for different reasons, yet they still contributed to their families. They offered advice when it was asked for, they gave emotional support, they listened, they gave undivided attention to their loved ones (they were in bed after all, they couldn’t go anywhere, and this was before cell phones). My suggestion is to focus on what you can do on those bed-ridden days. If the most you can do is tell them to have a good day as they leave the house, they have that to help them through the day, your encouragement. Stay strong, remember you are more than your illness and your family loves you as you love them.

Although I am going to be 18, I have a love life for 2.5 years. A beautiful and amazing one. But my parents do not like love marriages. I was beaten and told to forget him and blah blah blah. I do concentrate a lot on studies not on love itself, but I have my darkness in which I longed to be loved by someone, when nobody loved me. I am scared and fearful that my parents will not accept this.
I am afraid of all insects – including butterflies – No I am not crazy 😛

You’re just 17 so it’s obvious your parents won’t accept your relationship (especially since you are in India). Even I would say that your priority should be your studies as it would help you be financially independent in the future that would help you present your case to your parents in the future and there would be higher chance that they won’t be able to say anything if you have the money to get married yourself. 🙂
Well, insects are creepy..
If you want to fly then one day you have to leave the comfort and protection of the nest.
The best part about psychology is that it is a study of human behavior as well as mental state so you won’t have to study a lot but observe and understand. Its not rocket science. They say “If you think you can or you cannot, you’re correct both ways”, so its better to be correct saying you can.

But after I moved to the new school, I have been experiencing some things that is not so sweet. From ragging to bullying to teasing, I just see them daily for 4 years now. The unfair gradings of teachers and all those stuff, just demotivates me. My parents don’t believe when I tell them, so its all to myself. Yes insects are omg.

so true Deepika. I can relate to what you mean. This situation is similar to what I feel. The principles and values that make the core of me, seems so different than the actual world. Indeed there are people worth to be friends with but they are very rare and difficult to come across. We either become a part of the system if we keep following what we are expected of or we lose our identity. In case we try to hold on to our uniqueness we become an outcast. To reach on the top rung…to be the alpha…there are innumerable sacrifices that one has to commit wherein the biggest one is to bury your principles.
This doesnt mean that I advise you to do that. Rather I would always wish to go for the impossible and be the example. Do the thing that people would never think that you could do. Prove them wrong and make them believe that doesnt matter how dark the world could be, you can always create a firework in it and shine like a star…

Hey Mvadi,
This fear is actually shared by many people in some or the other way, including myself. I won’t say that I don’t feel loved but yeah I fear of not achieving the goals I have set and also ending up alone at the end of my life.
But I think it’s all in our head. We all have atleast 1 or 2 person in our lives that we can rely on. That 1 or 2 friend/s love us so we always have someone who love us. If we seek romantic connection then it’s a different story as not all are lucky enough to find their soul mate but I always tell myself that I can either keep on believing that one day a person will come in my life who would truly love me or I can just love myself to the extend that till the time that person comes I won’t give up on love. 😊
We are glad that our small concept is able to bring some many people from across the globe a little closer to each other in some or the other way .

Hey Dee Kay,
In that case, I’m glad to know that I’m not the only one. Yes, I agree. Sometimes my sadness gets the best of me and I feel like no one really loves me or cares about me but I’m pretty sure that there are people who care about me in my life. I don’t have many friends, maybe 1 or 2, but it feels enough because they’re so great and kind. I’m glad you feel that way too. I love how you think about that! It’s a very positive approach to take and you really never know when love will arrive at your doorstep. It’s great that you believe in self-love. I’m trying to love myself and I’m actually starting to realize that I’m a happier person. I’m glad you won’t give up. I hope I don’t either. Still have a long road ahead of me!🙈

Thank you for the valuable advice, my friend. I’ll definitely keep going and strive to make self-love my first priority, one step at a time. I know it isn’t easy but I think it’s time to change my idea of happiness for my own sake. And you’re right. Ever since we were kids, we were taught to believe that happiness was something you had to find and that it was something external. (The Prince Charmings in the Disney movies and so forth) But after a really long time, I’ve come to believe that happiness is a profound feeling that comes from within. It’s a feeling that too many people long for without knowing that they have the power to feel it and they don’t necessarily need anyone else to make them happy, if they have themselves because they matter the most.

According to Dale Carnegie, many people fear public speaking. Do they fear the public’s opinion or behavior after their speech or not being able to convey the message clearly?
But for me, it’s something else.
Thunderstorms. It scares out of me.
In Junior school days, I used to be scared out of fans falling at me”
Well, let’s simplify it. We all (at least I as of now) fear our death ultimately.
“All wants to go to heaven, but none wanna die.”
I sometimes think am I really free? Is not our fears holding us back? Fear of anything and everything, fear of love, fear of lightning, fear of crackers bursting, fear of losing our dear ones, fear of our own imaginable death forecasting possibilities, fear of losing our jobs, fear of unacceptance.
How wonderful it would be if we can really be free from our fears and accept that death is the sole truth, things would be left incomplete, things would not be taken away with us; accept that the fruits of the trees we plant cannot be tasted by us; accept that we have nothing to take away from this world; accept that we are in lease at the planet; accept that the soulmate we are in search of cannot share the same grave; accept that universe was and would run eternally irrespective of our attendance on eath; accept the uncertainty.
How do we be fearless? Should we follow Buddha and the monks who left the comfort of lives in search of finding which is uncertain, the truth, the life? Or should we be inspired by Krishna who in the directed Arjuna that the following our karma by utmost devotion to the Supreme is the ultimate way of liberation of the soul, which thereby guarantee the utmost freedom? Is everything linking to the same thing? Anyways, I know It went deep here.
I hope to cover this milestone someday; if someone has a way or opinion do let me know.

Death is what gives life meaning. If there is no end then there would be an infinite loop of unknown and unstoppable scenarios where humans no longer would try to achieve anything.
If there is no fear then there is no value of courage.. As they say, “Every action has a equal and opposite reaction”. Which simply means that there is no meaning of start if there is no end, no meaning of courage without fear and so on and so forth..
Listen to the wise people from the human history.. Question their teachings, argue with their followers, till you actually understand and accept their words.. Buddha, Krishna, Jesus, Prophet Muhammad and others.. They all have some or the other things to teach so be your own hero at the end of the day and learn from the greatest from our history as human race..

It is strange about fear of death. I used to fear it – until when I had cancer I actually was dying. At the time I was not afraid at all. In fact I was joyful. I wanted everyone to celebrate. I went into remission from cancer, and now, somebtime after going into remission, I fear death again. I don’t know why. Maybe it is that when we are staring it in the face we are not fearful. Then when we are not staring it in the face we become fearful again. I wonder if, when it finally comes something is released within us so that we are not afraid? Interesting subject

Then when we survive that scare we realize that now we have everything to lose again. At the end of the day we are all humans and death is the biggest or greatest fear of all..

We are from India so we kinda have a history with the English 😁 So I won’t talk about the past..
Just kidding..
Violence has become the tool of the rich and power to control the average man.. Its like wild fire spread across the globe.. There is too much darkness in this world that is why I focus on the bright side of the world..
I too enjoy the silence and calmness of the countryside than the noise and never sleeping cities. English countryside are beautiful.. Although, it rains a lot but then if the site is beautiful and one have nice company then its all worth it..
I’m sorry to hear about your blindness.. I would surely like to hear about your life story someday..

My blig tells some of my lufestory but I am hopefully going to write it properly. As for the past, well…….I am not part of that. Wasn’t here then, and I respect all peoples and races and religions, and wish equality for all. I am basically just me lol.

Am afraid of not making it in life. I hate it when year in year out being in the same position. I want to grow, travel, meet people from different race and have all the nice and good things. But these thoughts seem so far away. I need to get there.,

That’s one fear that have destroyed more dreams than anything else.. 😧
Personally speaking I am on the same crossroad but at the same time I know that the person who is stopping me from achieving these things isn’t anyone else but me.. We often get caught up in our worries about the future or are still living in the past that we stop living..
I hope you gather the courage to break your own mindset and embrace your life.

It’s true our fears update thenselves with age, and according to our experiences. Lol I am not sure if I am typing in all the right places! My bigggest fear nowadays is abandonment. And I fear my cancer coming back, for it decimated me and made me like I am now. Yet strangely life is richer for having experienced it. I am noy cured but in remission. Changed me for ever!

Yeah, abandonment is a seriously legit fear.. If I’m being honest here it is one of my biggest fear..

As silly as this will seem I am afraid I am going to spontaneously combust. And while most people are going to laugh and say ‘never’ I am okay with that. I even admit it is a strange one until the day I was taking clothing out of my dryer and it stated ‘To avoid Fire hazard/Injury etc including Spontaneous Combustion’ and I went omg! I am now very kind to the dryer. No overfilling. No large items. Because I do not want to go boom! I hope that this puts a smile on someone’s face.

Fear can be of anything so there is no judging one’s fear. No matter how outrageous a fear may sound to others it really affects the one who have them..
