Fear, The Thief

in #bigwaves8 years ago

Good afternoon, my fellow Steemians, I really do believe you are having a great day. If you ain't, please, cheer up. Relax. And get something that would make you feel better!

EVERYONE DESERVES A GREAT DAY

Today, we are going to be discussing something that's important to you and I as people. It is something that affects people's lives!

Fear is common to everyone. Everyone feels fear; the old, the young, kids, adults, etc. ~Anonymous

Do you know that fear is one thing that can make you give up ever before you begin? It can make you lose hope when you should stay hopeful and are expected to stay helpful.
I once heard of a man whose wife was about to give birth to a baby, this man made a fool of himself by crying in the presence of everyone: the nurses, doctors, and patients.

Fear can change a man into a boy as faith can make a boy become a man.

Well, at this point, you know about fear, but I haven't really defined what it is yet. So, let's go on to that:
What is fear?:
Fear can be defined as a strong, uncontrollable, unpleasant emotion caused by actual or perceived danger or threat.

Also, fear can be defined as:

A phobia, a sense of fear induced by something or someone.

One thing is, everybody has one fear or the other. We are humans, and humans have fears.

But guess what:
Everybody doesn't have the same fear

This is a huge fact:

What scares you may not scare others; and what scares others may not scare you.

The aforementioned man (the story shared) was scared of losing his wife or baby, and that fear made him to say some things that were not quite good. Well, that's what fear is capable of doing to us. It makes us become a weak at a time where people expect us to be strong.

It is the fear he felt the made him to become so shaky and annoying to everyone. In fact, one time he told the doctor "I am not a man, I am a woman."

Can you imagine a man calling himself a woman? That's what fear can do to you. Did you know that many people have even chautheir identity because of fear.....
Fear is really something to be scared of.

We have no fear, but fear. Fear is what we fear. ~Anonymous

You and I must also, at this point, understand the causes of fear. But, in other to prevent a post that's too lengthy, I am going to discuss that in another post.....
Stay tuned!

Thanks for reading this article, I sincerely hope you benefited from it.
