Fearsome Future!

Where anything exists/lives, fear is bound to exist… In the animal world, fear is only of surviving – surviving from other more powerful animals, surviving in adverse food/weather conditions… But in the world of human beings, fear is just not restricted to survival… the biggest fear, I have experienced and have seen most people suffer from is the fear of the unknown… a very wise person once said that “change is the only constant”… most people would be aware of this..  I know about this one too, but then when the only thing certain and constant in our lives is ‘change’ why is the future/ the unknown/ the surprise - a source of constant fear in our lives… people chose to live miserable lives because they do not want to leave their comfort zones, they do not want to leave the familiar…

Fear of the unexpected and unknown forces us to live miserably and we very well plunge into this temptation, blaming all of it on our emotions, love, blah blah blah…! But is something that makes you feel miserable, does not let you grow, makes you unsure of you nice self really love or true emotions…? Isn’t it more of something which is a habit which we refuse to abandon and therefore loosely term it love… why can we not gather the courage to shun the miserable and just be strong enough to face the unknown.. Isn’t there a possibility that the unknown surprises us by being better than the known…

Yes, agreed that a known devil is better than an unknown devil… But is it that the change that we are expecting, these unknown encounters necessarily devilish… can they not be good! How do we reject this pessimism about the future and fill it with optimism… make our selves believe that even the unknown or should I say that the unusual can also be positive and better for our future.. -  A refreshing breeze of goodness….
