FEAR ITSELF
When you drift off to sleep, what is it that you fear most in your life?
Is it the darkness? Is it the things that go bump in the night?
Maybe you are afraid of losing all that you have worked so hard to become?
One day you might wake up only to learn that your entire life was a fragile illusion. Your friends and family, your career, no more than figments of an imagined reality. You might wake to discover that the past few years of your life have been wasted on the empty pursuit of a perfect ideal, only to realize that the ideal was far from what you had imagined in the long run.
You might wake up to discover that your world has been taken over by zombies, or werewolves, or vampires of the non-twinkling variety. You could in all likeliness, wake up in a post apocalyptic nightmare world overrun by cannibals and daemons.
Or maybe you will simply wake up into a world that offers more of what you have always known, without any chance for betterment.
It is easy to be afraid of what might come next because the fear of the unknown is the easiest one to embrace.
The unfortunate truth for most of us is that we don't realize the fact that our own greatest fear is the one that lives before us; the fear of fear itself.
