VITAPHOBIA.. Fear of Life

You know it is wrong but you don't say anything. You know there is a better way to do it, but you will still do what is told to you. You have a doubt, but you won't ask. You have answers but you won't give them. You are good but you don't want to accept it.. probably, you haven't met yourself yet.

You never raise your voice. You never stand up for a change. You never ask a question. You keep yourself bottled up inside... I am asking : WHY?

You are telling me : I am scared.

I ask : Scared of what?

You say : Scared of Life.

Scared of Life. Scared of change. Scared of public reactions.

But public reactions never paid your bills, they didn't pay you salary either. Then, why are you bothered who says what?

People come and people go.. and you can't be too sure of who is to stay or for how long. So, why depend on them. You are who you are - and there is a reason why you are an 'individual'. Understand. Accept. Respect.

Because if you don't respect yourself, how do you expect others to look up to you?

Don't clog your mind with unnecessary baggage. Set your own targets, be your own example, run your own race. Your competition is not with anybody, but with yourself. Life is, after all, a constant endeavour. How will you walk ahead if you are scared of Life, itself? The fear of setting off along a road heading who knows where, the fear of a life full of new challenges, the fear of losing forever everything that is familiar.. but in the end, you CANNOT give in to the fear.

You are your own inhibition. You are your phobia. If there is anything that's pulling you down, that is stopping you, it is you - yourself. Nobody, but you and only you can break off all the chains. Rebel , rise  and conquer.

It’s strange how what drives us - may abandon us midstream, how what tickles our ears with lies one moment - may tell us truths that knock us on our emotional back  the next.
We strive and strain, bellow and believe, we learn, and everything we learn tells us the same thing: life is one great meaningful experience in a meaningless world. We live, heal and attempt to piece together a picture worth the price of our very lives.
