My Greatest Fear by phloxie(f): 2:18pm On Jul 14, 2015
So many people have different ways  to explain the word "fear", i couldn't even define it well, i knew it was a bad feeling so i had to visit google and i got a definition that said "it is an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain or threat". 

Everyone has fears, some are personal, some are explanable, you can never really understand someone else's fears, you can't  even relate to them. Fears comes in different forms and it haunts you. 

My greatest fear is FAILURE, i know no one likes to fail but it's just too hard not be scared that i might disappoint my parents and fail them or fail in something that i like to do, what approach have i used to deal with this fear? I always tried to reassure myself that it's just a feeling and nothing more, i have always prayed about it and ask for peace instead, but i don't think they are enough, the fact is there is so much i can do. 

I don't know what my future will be but i have the power to shape it with the help of God and if at the end i fail then that is my fault but for the main time i can only help myself confront this fear by always saying to myself "Relax, Everything is alright", accepting this fear fearfully, pushing forward, refusing to speculate too much on the future and growing with it.
