Once upon a time
Long long ago
In a far away land
Was a sweet little child
Who used to have a fairy tale book
Read to her by her dear mother
Every night as she was tucked into bed
She would hear a story from her mom
But there were clauses to this plan.
It was a given thing between the two
The story had to have a happy ending
The story includes people and animals
Or even a garden of fruits and flowers
Enchanting stories of courage and dare
Of compassion and care
Of humanity at large
In goodwill and love
Or even seemingly silly stories
Of life and living in general
Of fun and frolic.
But there was a pact between the two
Which her mother followed to the tee.
Simply there was one area
The story must not go to or be
Of things above in the sky.
Although her mother was too drawn
To explore the mystery of space…
But the little girl felt a little too lost
To fathom space and beyond
May be it was just her nature
Or perhaps there was more to it
Of why she was uncomfortable with unknown space!
Leaving a few musings in contemplation…
Are fears rational or just an illusion in the making?
What are irrational fears?
Are they there for a reason?
Do fears manifests from past lives?
Do fears eventually help us someway?
How does one overcome these fears?
Can we grow out of our little fears?
Do you have any experience of fears as a kid?
Have you chosen to outgrow them?
Have you managed to face your fears?
For life awaits on the other side of fear!

A lot of questions to contemplate………as per me I feared all four legged creatures …dogs …cats …rats but as I grew spiritually I started seeing soul in them they too are source of the same as us ……. I have been able to conquer that fear

Wonderful to know this about the way you conquered your fears. Yes fear is often a self created illusion and when we choose to see things in a different light, fear too diminishes .💕👍💕

Well written!❤️
Fears are a contemplation of past. A human nature of being in a comfort zone always gets the better of us no matter stepping out would be good or bad. We just don’t wanna be gritty. Have felt that only so far.

Thank you for your reflections Samyak Singh . Yes, A step in dare may be all it takes to change the equation. Yet it often may seem to be unsurmountable.
For fear clouds judgements because of assumptions or personal past experiences.
However time moves on and changes things … And time is a great teacher of letting go . Nothing lasts forever after all. Fear too may diminish with time and in defocussing from it and seeing the bigger picture of possibilities beyond fear.
