Not afraid.


![1000243816.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/balikis95/EoK5JSDCQQKvMM593QzgQKUeckeKm5Krhq7kVZXJsA5cW8LQqmHYmL1zsYcDw2rQUkH.jpg)

There's a lot of reasons we don't have to be afraid of anything, and still, there's a lot of reasons we are afraid of things. Afraid of losing a child, a parent, our lives, few animals, electricity, and lots of other things.

The moment there's fear, it is because we've created a bond with those things that the thought of losing them gets our eyes red in seconds. Parents losing their child is never an easy feat. It shatters their hearts. I have seen a lot of movies and also seen in reality how the loss of a child can bring down a happy home, especially if that is the only child they have together.

The two souls that would once smile at each other will bear out their teeth out like a starved carnivorous animal. When you see this, it makes you question if they really loved each other from the very first beginning. I mean, how could they change so much?

This is exactly what fear and loss can bring to us. So, it is hard to say one isn't afraid because the fear has been present the moment we had that thing that brings a smile our way.

Another scenario is someone who lost their whole portfolio to scammers. Someone like me, I don't go around clicking any kind of links because that's one way online scammers work. I know that, and because I have some little things online that I would rather for the sake of every living thing, not lose what I have. I wouldn't go clicking a link because a friend sent it.  

I would have to chat with the person, call maybe, or do anything that could have made me be sure they weren't hacked.

Fear can make us do a lot. For someone who is scared of spiders, such a person can't for the love of anything in this world, stay in a place filled with nature. I don't care what you promise, before someone like that would agree to go knowing what they fear has a higher probability of being where they are going will be a hard fit.

But when it comes to other fears like the fear of change, fear of living our comfort zones, and others, those can still be worked on, at least I believe so. For someone who doesn't really enjoy going out much, I have been doing that a lot more for a few months, and I can say I wasn't that afraid to take the step.

This is why I enjoy listening to Eminem's song, "Not afraid," whenever I want to take steps like this.

The moment I tell myself "I am not afraid to take the step," the rest of the lyrics end up taking over my mind thereby, serving as an inspiration and I have liked it ever since. It always works like magic.

So, if you are someone who is afraid of public speaking, would you maybe give this song a go, maybe... just maybe it might be your lucky charm that you may end up slaying everything in a way you wouldn't need a song to charge you up before facing the crowd some day.

The moment you lose something precious it lives a scar in your mind and brain, you can't forget so easily,, if possible we shouldn't create such bounds but family bounds are just natural that's why it hurts more when we lose a member

Sunday motivation! Thank you for the inspiring songs. Fear is indeed a great limiting factor to a lot of things in life. 

"Not afraid" was one my best childhood songs back then, I'm glad to come across this again
