Fear!
11:20:00 PMKrishna RaoFear! You hide behind this deadly virus all the time.
Fear doesn't allow us to express truthfully anything to anyone at all.
We believe that if we do express, then we may jeopardize our lives, future and progress.
We live in fear all the time. Take the case of the fear of the school bully or the college principal.
The fear of asking a girl out when you have fallen for her keeps you from popping the question.
What is the worst that can ever happen to you if you were to express yourself to her?
She may slap you at the most or may show interest in you! Either way, your mental gymnastics will come to an end to the most desired question- does she like me or not! See?
But if fear strikes you, then your lips are sealed, you are afraid to approach her, your knees go weak when she passes you. If you do not overcome that fear then she may just walk away with your best pal! Then you will rue it all your life.
In marriage also we come across such dreaded fears.
Who will take care of me if I were to walk out of this marriage?
I have a child of ten and she may not have a father figure in life so how will she cope with her friends and relatives? All your fear are unfounded since they stem from an over exaggerated mind which just feeds you constantly with so much of bull crap. It makes your mind hyper active and shows your scenarios of doom and destruction.
Has it ever happened with all those who have walked out of their marriages?
Even famous personalities survive all such depressing situations.
The fear of not having anyone around to lean on when you grow old also comes to one and all.
The one who has destined your life has taken care of all these things but we never trust or believe Him ever. The mother dies at the time of birth but the child grows up into a very healthy and powerful young man. Does it not tell you that even the most weak or frail ones are taken care by that Great God?
Why do you have to fear anything at all when you know that the destiny is never in any human beings hands but in most capable ones of God?
He is all merciful and compassionate One who takes care of each and everyone of us.
You do not have to feel inadequate or lost if you have to face a difficult situation in life.
Fear will never let you take the correct approach or make you truly the one you always wanted to be. You will feel bad to even look at your own face in the mirror if you fear anything.
Be your true self and do not be afraid and do what makes you smile and be proud of your own self. You may be put to a very tough situation but why not face it.
One last word of caution here- I am asking you to overcome fear but I am not asking you to be foolish. I hope you understand what I mean.

The only way to overcome fear is to confront it.
