Fear

I feel like fear is such a hated emotion. I feel like it's not just our society saying we should be stronger, wiser, sharper, better, whatever. I feel like our society is pushing us away from fear. When fear is natural. Fear is wholesome. Fear is healthy. I feel like our society is pushing us towards this fear of fear when we learn too late that that's the wrong thing to do. And we drain our energies into trying to avoiding even the notion of fear in ourselves. When in fact, it's the moment that you realize that if you just let fear wash over you, completely engulf you and that there was nothing to fear after all, is when you live. To fear fear is what society tells us is the right thing to do and in the end it's what we tell ours selves, our internal selves, the selves that have to live with our selves when we take ourselves home that should be the first guide. Not the last guide. But that internal voice telling us "Maybe not" should be a start to the direction in which we point our decisions.
