Fear is another huge word in the feelings dictionary. Everyone of us is afraid of something.
Fear is vital! And if you're not scared of SOMEthing then i guarentee you you're either insane or heartless..
Our fears escalates from silly things like spiders, snakes, bugs, clowns... to deeper ones like death, loneliness, demons, loss...
Those fears have two different origins: the past or the future.
Picture this: you wake up in the middle of the night and you find a huge spider that just bit you..you'll automaticly be afraid of it OR, the first clown that you saw was a killer clown in a horror movie when you were like 6 years old you'll obviously hate clowns forever. These kind of fears were born in the past and will live with us till we die.
Then there's the bigger fears, the fatal ones, those wich can lead to paranoia: the ones we're scared they'll happen in our future... Loss, loneliness and death, these three are soo attached. Who's not afraid of living alone for the rest of his days? Who's not afraid of loosing a loved one like a member of the family, a friend or a significant other? Who's not afraid of DEATH!?
To sum up all of this i've gotta say that fear is HERE with us, hunting us all the time ,BUT, ( and belive me there's always a but ) it can be controlled, we can surpass it, we can live with it, the important thing is we shouldn't let it be the one who's controlling us, we shouldn't let it guide us to places we don't wanna know.
You can be human and have your own fears but you mustn't be a coward and let that fear ruin you.
