Fear Overcomes All.
With the way our country is right now, fear is something that is on everyone’s mind. With the way the men in our country are, fear is on every girl’s mind. With the way teachers in our country are, fear is on every student’s mind. With the way relationships are treated in this world, fear is on everyone’s mind.
Fear truly does overcome all. It is such a powerful, suffocating emotion. It takes ahold of you so fast and so strong and doesn’t let go for a long, long time. It can take up such a big part of your everyday life, whether it be any big or small decision.
However, this? This is just the start of this overwhelming emotion called fear.
Along with being such an overbearing and overwhelming emotion, fear can take many, many forms. It could start from something as small as a cockroach and reach up to existential fear of death. But that’s just one part. Fear can stem from decisions, choices made and the consequences to be seen. It can stem from people themselves, who they are, what they can do or say, what effect they can have on you.
So, why am I talking about fear? Why’d I pick up such a dark topic once again? Well, you see. I recently had a reawakening to what fear really is. A few months ago, I was given news that shook me to my core. I hadn’t seen my hands shake that much in so long that I had forgotten about it. But….. when it did come, along with it came all the memories of every bad decision I ever made.
Every lie. Every insult. Every time I made a wrong decision. Every time I made a mistake that shouldn’t have been fixed.
Fear took ahold of me. Of every single muscle in me. Every blood cell. Every molecule. It had been so long since that had happened.
The best part about it is that it was completely my fault.
You see, what I went through, what I saw was just one facet of fear, one side of it. Fear exists within us all, whether you realize or not. No matter how much you deny it, turn away from it, shun it, it’s always there….
Always lurking deep inside you, ready to pounce at any second and take you into its dark, soulless arms….
How would you fight it, resist it, overcome it?
Would you? Do you truly believe you can? Or will you let it pull you apart?
What is your greatest fear, dear reader……? What is that one thing that takes ahold of you unlike anything else?
Is it walking alone at night? Is it the fear of losing something precious? Is it the fear of making the wrong decision? Or maybe….. It’s something much, much worse. Something that lurks deep inside that heart of yours, something that would love to rear its head as soon as it gets the chance.
What must you do to temper it, control it, handle it…….kill it? You can’t. It stays forever and ever. With every step, every look and every breath, it stays with you.
That’s all for now, folks. Hehehe, decided to go for a slight creepy vibe. I was bored.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
