Fear …is one of the more interesting traits of humans has probably created more change on this planet than mother nature herself. It is said that we give off and odor when we are scared that animals pick up on; why I don’t doubt this, I feel that it is something that can be managed in the face of change. Why did I say change? Because that is what fear thrives on isn’t it?
People are so afraid of change that the will let their fear anything control their path, health and even their way of life. It never ceases to amaze me the lengths people will go to, to avoid certain situations. I’m reminded daily that change will come weather you like it or not, so why not I make change instead of responding to it. Why don’t I start grad school? Why don’t I buy a new car? Why don’t I tell my boss that I don’t think my pay is fair? Why don’t I tell my spouse that I’ve fallen out of love? Those questions are just a small taste of the questions people ask themselves everyday and don’t react to because they are scared of the work it will take to make it happen, failure or even succeeding! which in my book is crazy but it happens. So if your reading this and you are one of those people don’t be afraid to get YA FEET WET!
Not all fear is caused by change. I have a fear of the dark (not funny!). My fear isn't that it changed from light to dark, but it's what is lurking in the dark that i'm afraid of. I myself did something i was fearful about over the weekend. So now its not the act that i'm scared of...but the consequences from it!
