“An unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat.”
Hey, feisty ones! It’s been a while. I apologize for the wait, but I’ve had a very busy summer, and of course, I’m always struggling through my emotions. With this in mind, I’ve decided to take you on the journey of understanding my emotions and what they stem from. So, sit down with a nice cup of coffee and let talk.
As quoted above, they say that fear is an emotion caused by a threat. Well, I’ve had to ask myself: What is the threat? And doing some introspective analysis, I found the threat to be myself. I do not trust myself. I’ve developed a belief that because I’ve gotten myself hurt before that I’m just going to continue to hurt myself. I’m not truly afraid of heights, I’m afraid of doing something stupid that will cause me to harm myself from a high point. During all of this discovery, I decided I’m going to conquer all of my fears one by one.
The List
- Heights
- Trust
- Body Dysmorphia (Not truly a fear but something I need to conquer)
- Failure
- Disappointment
- Bugs
- Dancing in Public
I will update everyone on the ones I have conquered or my failure of conquering them, and they may include pictures. I’m deciding to live my life out of fear. What happens, happens. I’m tired of feeling trapped in an emotional rollercoaster. It’s time to disembark.
That’s all for now. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and feel free to comment your fears and how you’ve conquered them or any advice you may have, and as always, stay feisty!
