Fears

God has pumped in many emotions in all the creatures of the world and our learnings though life depend on how we wade through these emotions. Fear is one of the biggest feelings that drive these emotions. Fear of losing societal prestige, fear of losing financial status, fear of losing love, fear of losing health, or fear of losing life etc etc!!! Why do we fear all these "fears"? Is it because we are too dependent on others to validate what we think or are we too attached with life that we dont want to progress....are we too scared to witness what is beyond these fears? I, like many others, feel that I do not fear anything but that is not true. I might not fear death or I might not need people to validate me but I might fear on other aspects.

I have always encountered situations wherein I just needed to push myself a little to go beyond the imagination of being successful. There is a very thin line between a fear and an overwhelming happiness. We also know that fears we dont face become our limits but still fear persists!! Running away from fears amplifies those fears and then we fear that bigger fear and it further gets bigger and the journey continues...

So what do we need to get rid of them? Do we risk taking a head-on collision everytime with these fears or do I take precautionary measures and move slowly? I cant be too sure but I feel the answer lies in the gut feeling - that tiny voice from within. If I believe in something with all my heart, I "know" I would do it.....if I trust someone I look into his/her eyes and "know" I would believe that person. So it is a state of "completeness" i guess. We face our fears when we "trust" ourselves....when we listen to that silence and feel content with what we have. Death would have no significance when we would realize the purpose of life & fulfill it up to the hilt. Losing anything to the materialistic or spiritual world would mean nothing when we would grow beyond its meaning. We must not act in the absence of fear but despite it!

There are still many surrounding questions - the quest of getting answers to which continues.
