Don’t Be Afraid 16 comments
Here we are, afraid of losing what we have all the time, holding on to it so tight that not a soul can touch it. We think by hiding it from the world, it’s hidden and it’s ours. Nothing is. Nothing ever will be. For, nothing ever was.
If you think there is anything that you have, that’s yours, be it money, a house, a job, or a girlfriend… it’s nothing but an illusion. It’ll all disappear… in one blow. One blow, my man.
Here we are, so insecure that we are afraid of re-starting our lives, so we just carry on trying to sort out the current mess. The thought that we should give it all up and just start all over – with nothing – might cross our minds some time, sure, but we get scared and we push away anything that scares us.
There is nothing I can ever achieve or gain that I cannot lose, in a matter of seconds. You have never gained enough to not be able to lose it all, in just a few minutes. What you think is yours, was never yours and will never be yours. Whatever you make here, you leave here. You came naked and you’re going to go back naked.
So what are you afraid of?
Let all be lost. Let them take away everything. As long as you have your heart beating strong, as long as you have your nostrils working fine, as long as the blood flows in your veins, you will live, you will breathe and you can get it all back… again and again. For, if you can do it once, you can damn well do it again. It’s just a game we play – Life.

If it’s that easy….then why tears, sadness, sorrow and many other things are still existing???? I agree with u that we shouldn’t think we own anything on this earth, but fear is a huge monster that can attack u suddenlly at any moment…..It’s out of control! u can’t push a button and let it go!

“Look my friend the word fear is mearly a thought n just an imagination of our immature mind, so the more u think of it the more stronger it ll hit u back , in return! The best way to get ride of it is to just stop thinking over it and let this thought bypass your mind, like a cloud bypassing a peak, and keep concentrating on your time, place, dimension and work!Which otherwise be left undone, thence it will be in vain to regrete and repent for the time lost!”by DR.

It is an acceptable thought that nothing in the world is ours.

The only way to get rid of fear is to surrender your self to the almighty and belive that what ever is happening or will happpen will be as per the wish of god.Let him take charge of your life .

Nice story…..never ever afraid of losing anything….if we see from 1 face of life we have all what we want actually but from other it’s a perception…….

I do agree with all the aspects of you, But there is a concept of Love in Life and that is the only thing a human being can own… And now tell me aren’t you scared if that “Love” goes away from you???

It’s true that we’re just stewards of what we posses here on earth but life isn’t a game, you’ll not have your next breath if God allows.
