I can fear and worry anything in the future.
However, remember I also feared and worried so many things in the past, and
they were nothing I feared, and none of them affected my life as I expected. Actually, fears and worries are not bad. These feelings tell me I have to be careful about something and keep more attention. However, the problem is that it crowds reasons and reality.I sometimes fear things that I do not even need to fear at all.
Viktor E Flankl says in the book Man's Search for Meaning.
Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and happiness.
Whatever happens to myself, I can chose how I respond to the reality.
How big the obstacles are in my life.
Yeah, I will feel deep emotion, but I can respond to that. I will not be killed or ruined by that. I can stand up again.
I cannot control 80 percent of my life, but I have some control over it.
That is enough.
Therefore, whatever fear I felt,
rejection of others
rejection of my crush
being the worst in the room
losing physical fitness
a war
death
making huge mistakes
sickness
embarrassed in front of people
Oh, I see how I afraid of being a failure socially as I write what I fear.
Amor Fati.
Love the fate.
"A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages. Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his. In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The purpose of this blog is to examine my thoughts, ideas, and life in order to know myself, and find where I am and who I am.
