“Hello everybody! How are you doing? Hopefully you’re all doing great today.”
This past days and up until now, I’ve been seeing many articles regarding the things they’re afraid of specifically their fears in life. Even my friends here who were part of our group chat the “BCH BEAUTIES” were also sharing an article regarding the said topic. Then I’m wondering, what if I will try this as well since I don’t have any topic though. So, for the one who initiated this challenge as well, Thank you. Since, it allows me to write something and published it here at the same time sharing my own thoughts of this and experiences.
So here we go.
Everyone of us had fears. But that doesn’t mean that my fears are same as your fears since we had the so-called individualities. We are not the same, maybe there are some fears that might be the same as yours but not all of it.
So, I’m gonna share now the things that I’m most afraid of.
Afraid of cockroaches
I don't know why, but every time I've seen a cockroach roaming around near me I felt tense and nervous and I even shout when I see it. It really makes my heart beats so fast. I felt like horrible every time cockroaches were in front of me.
What I did when I encountered such thing is that, I usually stand on a chair or table or whatever is it that will just made myself elevate from the floor. Haha I'm really afraid of it. I don't know why. Haha Even though they're just a small insect but they will make me horrible.
Afraid of frogs
So, aside from cockroaches I am also super afraid of frogs. I hate seeing them just like the cockroaches.
There was one time that I washed clothes during evening since it was said that during day there will be power outage. So, for me to be able to used the washing machine I washed at evening. But in the middle of my washing I’ve seen one frog jumping in front me and I was like shouting and to find out that it’s not only one frog. I was surrounded by many frogs. Imagined how afraid I am this time (hahaha) knowing that I had fear on frogs.
What I did is that, I called my partner and asked him to let the frogs disappears in front of me.
Afraid of snakes especially those venomous ones
Who would not be afraid of snakes? Right? I’m also afraid of snakes even by just seeing them.
I never been bitten by a snake but my cousin was and sad to say she died because of that. That’s why I hate snake as well.
Afraid of heights
This is one that I really hate as well. Whenever I’m on top of a hill something like that I really don’t like seeing the bottom part of it since I also felt like vomiting if I did such thing.
Even just by jumping from a higher ground every time I will go for a swim it really takes so much time for me to be landed on water since I’m afraid to jump in an elevated part of it. But in the end, I jump so that means I conquer my fears here but it just takes time for me deciding whether I jump or not.
Now, let’s move on to a little deeper fears of mine.
Afraid of losing loved ones
By just thinking of losing someone whom I cherished the most: my family, parents, siblings, my little family, my partner and mostly my son. I really don’t know what to do if this happens to me. I’m totally afraid of this because I’m not yet ready for now.
I know that we don’t own our life that there’s an end of it since were just humans and were not immortal. That anytime, we won’t be able to used this life that we had. The only thing is that I’m not yet ready for now because I still have lots of dreams to my family and to my own family that wasn’t accomplished yet. That’s why.
Afraid of death
I knew in myself that I shouldn’t be afraid of death because we will be going on that track in the end and we also don’t know what lies ahead of us.
I will not be afraid of death, if only I already fulfilled my goals in life. But since not, I’m afraid that I’ll be leaving my loved ones without accomplishing my dreams for them.
So, these are the things that I am most afraid of. I’m actually afraid of many things but what I mentioned above are the things that I’m mostly and usually fear of.
Final Thoughts
We all have fears and we can’t deny that fact. Even if we looked brave outside but deeply we had things that were afraid of. Even those toughest people, I don’t believed that they don’t have fears. We are just humans and not robots, we had feelings and for sure we felt not most of the times but sometimes the fears on something. The only thing there is that, we should not make that fears of ours hinders our goals in life. We should not make that fears dominates us and ruins our life. We must put limitations on such things and we knew also that fears can be overcome depending on us.
As what Aristotle said, “ He who has overcome his fears will truly be free.”
That’s it. HAPPY READING!
