I Don't Want to Let Fear Control My Life

What exactly are we afraid? Do you know what you're afraid of? I'm afraid of a lot of things and only when I admit them to myself is when I get relief from them.

Sometimes its not about conquering, but acceptance and growing in your ability to handle them effectively and not let them cripple you

Absolutely there is!! We try to hide weakness so we look like we are in control ......and we rarely really are
FORMERLYbatovn · 56-60, M
Or ignore it so we don't look weak. Pride is a huge friend of fear

Haha. The older I get, the more I realize that perspective and attitude is everything . Helping others is a great learning experience on keeping those. Plus it reminds us that we all struggle with stuff and we all need a friend

Life is a growing and learning process ! We should constantly be open to that, even if the process is tough or takes us outta our comfort zone

@Batovn I think acceptance is the key to every part of life. Too bad most of us have to deny first. 😏

Okay I've been out of my comfort zone for about for years now... I want it back... :)

@Batovn Do you think there's such a thing as false pride?
Justpeaceandlove · 61-69, F
:) Now if I could only keep those negative thoughts away completely! 😄

There are many ways.....the secret is finding the one that works for you

Well I got tired about a year ago of hiding but it seems I've hid so much that I'm still becoming aware of others I thought I exposed.

I agree. Sometimes the challenge is more then I want but I carry on for the moment. I try and live each moment.
