With beautiful sunshine, there will be a shade under the trees
The night will close a day filled with light.
Nature is like that, so is human life. Life is not always filled with happy moments, life does not always bring us joys. Sometimes, we will feel hesitant about moments, which may bring us emotions that are not very exciting and optimistic. Fear is one of them.
From the very beginning, fear has been present as an inherent existence in the human psyche, it carries strong, natural emotions to warn of threats to one's safety. , from the body to spirit. Like an instinct, we feel fear of what we "don't want", of what we "hate", of what we "despise". These can be things that we have never or have experienced, difficult obstacles to unknowingly ingrained in our subconscious, dangers from life, or sometimes, they are just products which are created from limitless human imagination.
The world has hundreds of thousands of fears, there are thousands of worries, there are so many things that make people feel hesitant and afraid. Each person has their own life, their own feelings. Therefore, each person's fear, with the same degree and manifestation, will also be different.
For example, some people are afraid of physical pain, violent beatings, challenging and dangerous games, unfortunate accidents, and physical injuries.

Some people are not afraid of physical pain, but emotional trauma. The pain in the soul is sometimes much deeper and more persistent than in the flesh, even unable to heal. There are wounds that can't be healed with time, but with a lifetime to deepen. The human soul is inherently sensitive and fragile, sensitive to the effects of the surrounding external environment, and vulnerable to the pain that life brings. Is that why it is placed deep in the heart, where it is surrounded by a firm and discreet chest?
However, there are people who are not afraid of death but are afraid of life, so many tragic suicides have happened. Originally, life is not scary, but events are captured in the film of life through the subjective lens of people. Maybe that thing is positive, or the lens is negative. And those negative things have made people afraid of life.
Some people are afraid of separations that will happen in life. These separations can be sudden, can be momentary, or sometimes take a lifetime. It can be a long trip, the breakup of inherently happy love, the result of accidental separation. People are afraid of accidental separation, perhaps because they are afraid of losing precious things.
Sometimes, the separation is not a matter of time or distance, but of people's hearts. "Close to face, far from heart", is not separation but still distance. People who are far away, even if they're right next to each other, can't understand each other, and because of that, they become even more distant. Forcing two discordant souls to harmonize, is like playing an out-of-tempo song, which sounds uncomfortable and awkward. And because of that, many people are also very afraid of it...
Some people are afraid of losing, some are afraid of success, some are afraid of being forgotten, some are afraid of being betrayed by people,... Indeed, the world has hundreds of thousands of fears, there are thousands of worries, Even if we want to control it, we can't control it. A person can carry many fears, many people sometimes have a common fear, any fear can be the source or result of another fear.
Even so, it would be pointless if life had nothing to fear. Someone once said: "Light needs darkness to exist, just as happiness grows from pain". Fear has existed since the very beginning of man, mixing with other positives and negatives, creating a life filled with emotions and nuances. It helps people avoid dangers, like an invisible door that is closed, preventing crooked wolves that are constantly stalking and threatening our safety. And sometimes, fear creates miracles in a person's life.
Just like that, a person is always looking for and appreciating the precious things in life out of fear of loneliness. Just like that, the two people, out of fear of suffering and separation, tried to mend their love that was about to fall apart. Like, a father, out of fear of death and regrets in life, tries to live a few more meaningful years with his loved ones in his family...
But, in the end, fear is still a negative emotion in general. If the world were only filled with fear, it would be desperate and deadlocked, especially for pessimists. Therefore, we need to constantly work to overcome that negative emotion, try to remove the obstacles that lie deep in our own subconscious. Overcoming fear is also considered an evolutionary mechanism of human society. And when we overcome our fears, we will become extraordinary, in a way, not only for ourselves but also for those around us. Fear is not a shame. It would be a shame if we let those fears surround our beautiful and happy lives.
Because of overcoming their own fear, many heroes have been remembered. What about you, have you overcome your fear? You don't need to be a hero in anyone's life, you just need to be the hero to free yourself from the deadlocks of your life
