Whoop whoop! And confetti! :D
When I think of fear, I obviously think of Divergent by Veronica Roth. "Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it."
Fear is useful. It makes us wise. It hurts us but I feel that this pain is the scraping away of our weaker parts. Fear sharpens us.
Fear is an oxymoron. It leaves scars and makes us more sympathetic to other's fears. It makes us weak and also makes us strong when we face it.
I am going to name my top four fears in honor of my Divergent themed post. Number one is the greatest fear, going down from there. Number four would have to be falling of any kind but specifically slip-and-slides. I hate them. Number three would be having people be angry at me. Or conflict, in other words. It's irrational, I know, and unavoidable but I worry far more than the average person and conflict always stresses me out to the extreme. Number two would be embarrassing myself. This one doesn't make sense either because I am very easily embarrassed and spend probably 87% of every day with this emotion but I still fear it. And number one would be... drum roll please! Having people be ashamed of me. It is tied very closely with number two but different. I feel it's because I couldn't stand it if someone didn't want to hang around me. Shame is The Most Horrible Emotion ever!
So, now I've exposed four of my fears! It's agreed that they're lame but that's why it's important to face them! To "be free from it."
Thanks for reading! Like Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Do one thing every day that scares you." I hope this helps you! Love and chocolate! Leah:D
