Fearless

The only way to concure fear, is to embrace it. But that simple act seems to be the most difficult. Fear is one of the most powerful emotions. Its hold on us is so strong than it can last forever. Even the strongest person in the world has fear. So, not matter how strong of an individual you become, there will always, always be fear.

So, what then, do we do with this emotion? Even the idea of going against fear is frightening. As long as you allow fear to control you, then you will forever be on the safe side of life. And the moment you step away from it, you are so suspectable to the harmful things around you.

To open your heart to something - has to be the most frightening of things. Cause as long as its closed off, you're safe. And the moment its open, all the bad things that can harm you can happen. I guess that's the thing. Just because it can hurt you, does mean that it will. And as long as you keep it closed off - safe from all the harm, you also keep it closed off from all the good.

So then fear comes into play once again. Cause if you're willing to open your heart for someone, now comes the task of trusting that person to keep your fragile heart safe from all the things you were afraid of in the first place. No longer can you safeguard your heart, because now you have theirs to protect. The main priority is no longer yourself - but the girl who made you want to try opening up your heart in the first place is what matters now. Cause its not just about you anymore. Its about her. And while you're busy keeping her heart safe, you just have to trust that she will keep yours safe, because all you want is for her to be happy and secure.

Is that the essence of being fearless?
