Читать книгу The Hypocrisy Of Humanity And The Philosophies Of A Millennial - John Koen - Страница 5

Everyone has something they are afraid of, and other people say to face their fears, when they usually don’t, that’s straight up hypocritical. Many people do have some ridiculous fears of things like the sky, talking, sitting, standing, etc. many people fear many things and some are really weird. Face your fears, meaning if you’re afraid of deadly amphibians or insects, does that mean cover me with them, no, some fears are ok and normal.

Many fear talking in public or being social, since they are scared of what people will believe. Now don’t be scared of talking in public, those who don’t talk at all are considered mutes and to me that’s not very good, I don’t know how you will survive in life without communicating. People are scared of speaking to girls if they are boys, girls could be scared too of talking to boys, again you must converse or no one will know how you feel about the other person, whether it’s good or bad. You should attempt at least, you may win and lose meaning get accepted or rejected, like in life, you win some and you lose some, but mostly lose, but at least you learn from your losses. Even when you are working in a company and are afraid of speaking to your boss of a possible promotion, even though you’re scared to talk to someone in higher power, if you want that promotion and their is an opening, then talk, don’t be scared, if you don’t talk, you may miss your opportunity, and regret it.

A normal fear would be snakes, spiders, rats or any other creature that can harm a person. Those you don’t really need to get rid of and you won’t be around so many deadly ones in your life. Other common ones such as fear of heights, airplanes, injections or needles, and germs, can be overcome and the fear disappears if you just work your ways around them.

When I was a kid, I was very scared of dogs, all kinds of dogs, though I didn’t fear cats, just getting scratched by one. I grew out of those fears around 10-11 years old and became afraid of death. Now death is really a big fear to many people. At such a young age, I was afraid of dying, but in the most sufferable ways. Death is a common fear, but surprisingly, it’s not in the top 10 fears anymore, I guess people realized that death is not so bad as you don’t have to worry about nothing, absolutely nothing, you’re dead. After I realized death is not such a bad thing, I got a new fear which is loss of a body part such as an arm, leg, tongue, hand, penis, etc. I believe all that you were born with, you should die with, but people can lose them in various ways such as war, saying something you should not have, making a person jealous, etc. try and keep everything, it’s pretty easy to.

The number one fear is change, apparently. People are mainly scared to change how they act, where they live, who they’re with, etc. I guess it can be frustrating to change something that you are so used to. But, nothing lasts forever, so might as well, it might take a while to adjust or adapt to it, but it will happen eventually.

Many people have fears that they don’t realize, like a loss of someone close to you. It’s like when your mother or father are really ill from their age, you will be afraid to lose them permanently, if you had a good relationship with them. If someone loses tons of hardworking money, they get scared because the government and/or banks will take things away from you without your permission, that’s really scary.

Now in days people are scared of other people because of what they hear and/or read on the news. People use to be very neighborly with their neighbors, some still are, but it’s not how it used to be in life. We were all very friendly to them, and now we are concerned and believe that they may be bad people, yes they may be, just be careful.

Fear is common and can be dealt with, depending on what it is, and is not abnormal to be scared. Fear is our most primal emotion out of all emotions, that’s why horror movies are popular since people want to feel and see something unexpected. Life is scary, but you have to live it and carry on, ignore those fears, they will hold you back, again depending on what it is. Don’t be scared, take risks sometimes, no risk leads to no possible improvements in life, i’m risking myself as a write this book, but I am learning many things and that’s what life is about.
