Fear of falling

We all are scared of falling..... 
But for different types of things.

Some fear their social status
Some fear their economical status
Some for falling in love and some are afraid of their career ladder.

Yet one day, we do fall. And that changes our life at once, good or bad doesn't matter. But it does change something, which is out of your imaginative boundaries. The only thing that makes sense is what you see from the place you have fallen.

Imagine an athlete from India running for a gold medal in the finals. He's much ahead of others but only few feet behind him is another athlete from Pakistan. In that nerve breaking moment, the Indian athlete tumbles a bit giving an opportunity to others to advance him. But he doesn't loose his balance, concentrates only on winning and that's fills his nerves with new energy which we usually call as determination. 


Only determination and hope makes every fall and every hurdle an opportunity for betterment. 



I happened to watch an amazing video of a Wildebeest fighting for life with half a dozen Cheetahs. I was wondering if there is a way this beast can escape. As I was giving up hope, it just freed itself from the Cheetahs and fought back for life. Guess what happened next? It survived. In reality, when it was surrounded by death, it fought fear, fear to die. That fear awakened the hope to live and the determination to fight back. 




If money was a human, I'm sure it'd have committed suicide by now for everyone blaming it as the ruler of the world. But the truth is, in my opinion, fear is the soul emperor of the universe. But yes, the motivation fear gives is extreme, like playing a life or death game sometimes.


But it also reveals the most extreme and unbelievable side of you at times. The fear of loosing something is what makes you work hard for it. So, don't be afraid to experience fear. Its as good for health as a good heart-felt laugh.
