Fear

Fear is an aspect of life that has a grip on us all.
Though some try to suppress it and gain the will power to get beyond it,
for others, that's a lifelong battle.

Fear of what is beyond tomorrow, fear of dissappointment and error.
Yet those fears push us beyond our limits.
Those fears prompt us to succeed and keep us on our toes.

Fear of the future - we live in the moment.
Fear of failure - we do our outmost best to get to the top.

So is it true that False Evidence that Appears Real in our lives
is part of human nature,
to either keep us in our comfort zones or kick us to the core,
that we want to overcome it and not let it overcome us?

  1. It's so true, Gracia. What a mature thinker you are at such a young age! We all live with fear. As we grow older, some fears diminish over time and then vanish, and others grow stronger. New ones can even arise. We all battle our own fears, whatever they are. And, yes - they are often false evidence appearing real!
