Fear is useless!
The first time I was born, I only wanted to to have fun and enjoy the journey of life. I wanted to play in the sand and make a mess of myself. But soon I found out that building what I wanted was really tough so I learnt to build them in my mind.
I mentally turned sticks into soldiers, trees into giants and soldier ants into dragons. I used to look up the skies like I already live there. I lived in the moon and cooked in mars. That was a billion years ago.
But soon I started learning to read and write, I was given fear. I was made to read exactly what I was given and write exactly what was expected of me and to dread drifting into the my spaceship in the air. I was made to take my school bag and go to exactly my own school and not go to another class in another school and listen to their powerful empress teaching in her senate.
I know there are many other people like me, that regret growing from childhoodout of freedom into sheeple life. I know I’m not the only one who regrets growing up in mars and defending the ant colony side by side with my fellow warrior ants.
Deep down I have always known that I was gradually losing my life in the knowledge I was given every day as I grew. Now when I look up at the night sky, I see the sky. When I look at the moon, I see the moon. Mars has become somewhere far away.
I only wanted to to have fun and enjoy the journey of life. I’m trapped now in this adult life, sometimes I feel I’m alone in this thought. Everyone waking up and going to work on time, dreading to miss that 8:00 am attendance register. The road is filled with a million people afraid. Everyone doing exactly the same thing, going exactly where they should go, doing everything exactly the way others have always done it.
But I have decided to take it all back! To hell with the world and all their fear infested rules of life.
That was since I came to this scary realization that this journey of life will all end some day. I learnt that someday, the sun will go out and moon will be nowhere to be found again , my cute little mars will disappear and my ant friends will eat me up because I’m locked up in the grave.
So I have decided to take it all back so I shed all my fears. Now I see a new side of life that I never knew I was missing. Now I am born again, fearless. I take all my chances, I could lose it all, I could win it all, but I take them anyway since I know this journey has an ending for everyone.
Good friend, why are you so afraid?
Its not like you will leave forever. Well, you can let it go, the world will find someone else to fulfill the dreams you dread so much. The world always does. With 7.2 billion people right now, if something needs to be done, someone else will eventually come up and do it.
What will it cost you to live your true life and fulfill your true dreams? As for me, let the sky fall, let the fire burn, let the rain drop, let it shine, I’ll do whatever I so desire to do while I am alive. Caution is good but fear is useless. Sometimes I let a tear drop when I remember all the opportunities I missed in life because I was too scared to move in and grab the damn moment by the balls. I should have always known that only angry lions get results.
A purposeless life will end up a being regret filled life. Follow your heart. If you are scared, go to bed.
Fear is useless! Impossible is nonsense!
