Fearless

Whether one admits it or not, a human being has this eminent fear of silence

A Talk About Fear
by Bobby Quitain 25February 2012
Fears that we don't seem to recognize:

1. Silence in the midst of one's concerns.
    Whether one admits it or not, a human being has this eminent fear of silence

 2.Opening up one's core self.
    Being vulnerable

3. Standing firm for one's conviction
    Just because the majority is for it doesn't mean it's right.

4. Surrender of one's control.
    There are some things in life that is beyond our control. We can always express our feelings for someone, and chances are that it might not be reciprocated but that doesn't mean we take it as some sort of a burden, because there are things that are just meant to be out of our control.


Elements of being fearless:

1. The Time.
    Being single is the fourth-watch of the night - a dawn of our lives, a transition stage - where our courage of facing what lies ahead will be tested. Be brave to face it because it is one perfect time to become fearless. It is only when we are afraid that we can truly be brave.

2. The Boat.
    It is the place of comfort where we know we are safe that bind us off from being truly courageous. You must get out of the boat in order to test your bravery.

3. The Storm.
    It is those things that shakes us that we should face to know what we are capable of, else we resign realizing we've never really tried.

4. The God.

5. The Choice.
    If there's no room for doubt, there's no room for faith.
 It's not required of us the complete absence of doubt, but only the complete presence of faith. 


Fearless. Fearing less and less one day at a time.
