Is it the cold sweat that drips down your back
Or the rapid beating of your heart in your chest
Is it the feeling of dread that consumes your thoughts
Or the icy grip that tightens in your stomach
Fear is the unknown
The shadowy figure lurking in the dark
It's the whispers of doubt that cloud your mind
And the endless what-ifs that plague your soul
But fear is also a reminder of our humanity
A signal that we care
It pushes us to overcome our limitations
To strive for growth and change
So we must embrace fear for what it is
A teacher
A guide
A catalyst for transformation
Fear is a way for us to confront our fears head-on and discover the true meaning of courage
