You arrive in this world fearless and with no worries and just flow with the life and time.
As you start your journey of life without your knowing slowly various fears starts settling in.
You start with schooling; instructions of right and wrong, starts flowing in. Comparison start happening, competition brought in life, failure and success is mourned or celebrated. We start making out differences on what is right or what is wrong? Then slowly we start fitting our life into society, rules, responsibility, set path of living, set routine and blend our lives with the people and society we surround.
Now after all this change applied to our lives we are converted to fearful from fearless. We are said then that you now graduate and are ready for mainstream life journey. What does that mean? It means that now you are qualified to bring another life in the same way to mainstream. 🙁
Once you are in mainstream you have responsibilities to earn, to feed, to take care of your beloved ones and not to forget acting as mentor to your kids to bring them in mainstream.
That is where Fear start building in our lives even more and we are tied with the knots of balancing all these act.
We start thinking what will happen to me if I loose job, if my boss find my skill not useful, my child is not able to cope with society rules, if earning stops, if I get sick and long list of “ifs” are added to our lives. In the end with all this, what we will do with our kids will they be fearless and live their life on their terms. Not sure now but only time will tell.
Question that I want to raise can we avoid this fear? Can we be all fearless? What should we change to change this situation?
Please tell me what you think? How can we live life again like we arrived in this world. Is that due to this reason we like our Childhood?
Good one Ashish. A new baba is being searched 🙂
Good going dear friend…
Solution is already mentioned at the start of your thoughts and is also certified by the Holy गीता- whenever you are filled with fear, think ‘तुम क्या लाए थे और क्या ले कर जाओगे. क्या लाए थे साथ जिसे खो दोगे?’
