I looked into the eyes of my own monsters and discovered fear, that fear that paralyzes, comes from within and adheres so strongly that it is even difficult to breathe and seek air, that state in which we stay and feel our feet nailed to the ground, making it impossible to walk and follow another path, but it also hurts to stay and try to overcome fear.
Remember that when you realize what you’re afraid of, it’s the time when the greatest vulnerability occurs, but this step is necessary because in this vulnerability we can find our strength to face what we know about color, shape and size.
- So I looked my own monsters in the eye.
- So I could arm myself with all my might in the face of my fears.
- Was it the goal to avoid everything I had collected so far?Failures.
- Loneliness.
- Uncertainty.
- Rejection and all my failures.
- ? no longer masters my footsteps.
- The goal was for all this to become the cornerstone of building a new safe base to be able to face fear and the world.
We are used to fleeing and pretending to be strong, how hiding reality behind a smile would kill all the monsters that torment our lives, when we behave this way, trying to escape what we fear rather than trying to face and overcome fear. , we’re just fueling all our problems.
These fears, left in the shade, become a knot in the throat that makes us tremble our voice, which brings us tears that can no longer be suppressed, although sometimes we do not know the reason for the minor but visible involuntary tremors in our hands when dealing with the things that matter, because it is in the darkness that our monsters feed and grow , and end up in a place of control of our own lives.
I know I’m not perfect and I can’t do everything right, but day by day I demand perfection on my own, maybe I’m the one who grows my monsters by not differentiating the human being from a perfect being.
So, looking at my monsters and looking them in the eye, I met and saw all my doubts, so I discovered that we all have more or less the same monsters, and that the fear of uncertainty, not being able to control our lives, is the captain of everything, so instead of insecurity for thinking about anything that might fail or that might make me fall , I decided to rise from the ashes and fly with regard to the fact that in my chances it is doing something. really good, desired and pleasant.
So I managed to look my monsters in the eye and rise from the ashes, now I control everything I feel, but I also guess I can’t control everything that happens outside of me, I’ve learned that life is a succession of uncontrollable events. , and they are often sad, but also often happy and make us smile.
Thus, we see that fear is often nothing more, nothing less than the interpretation we make of what we live but that we cannot control, once we learn that, we abandon that part of us, that part that wants to control everything. And the game, that gets carried away gains space. Start living what attracts you, enjoy the good, without letting bad experiences happen (and they always happen!) Feed our inner monsters.
Now I know that I don’t need to be perfect and live a fairytale life, I also know that I must not give up or let myself be controlled by my fears and for all that I have failed or will fail again. without being perfect I can be happy, and that’s why I decide to be happy at all times.
