Don't be afraid to get hurt. Open your arms and love who you want how you want. You'll get pushed aside and thrown in the dirt. You'll feel like nothing every once and awhile but that's just life. You're going to fall and get knocked down. I can promise you that. Don't stand back and hide your feelings and be ashamed to love. Fear is a liar. Fear will make you miss opportunities and fear will hide you away. Fear is evil. Fear is the reason we break promises. We are afraid and we assume things. Fear is a liar and it will tell you not to trust someone. It will tie you down and dangle happiness in your face while you're afraid to come out of your shell. We all fear things, whether it be dark rooms or falling in love.
Kakorrhaphiophobia
The fear of failure.
