The Fear of Tomorrow

What are you so scared of? No, not stuff like ghosts and darkness. Situations. Near-to-death situations? Maybe. Situations where you thought that you would literally die- when the problem was as petit as not completing your work before the deadline. Don’t say you aren’t afraid. Afraid of your boss, teachers, parents, people, friends, family, etc. because we all are, and continue to. We get so scared of minute responsibilities. Such situations thrash us almost every day which pile up tensions, anxiety, and fear.

But hold on, take the deepest breath your lungs can take, go out for a walk, listen to your music and relax your soul out. Let it all go. Don’t think about what others would do and think. Don’t think about what tomorrow holds. They are not going to kill you and you’re not going to die. Take a step back from your hectic life and realize all that you’ve been missing, all this time. Go out and do something other than your everyday chores. Spend time with your family and friends. For a while, forget about the important presentation you have to give the next morning and go for a midnight drive. Don’t wait for the time to ‘enjoy’, when you have to take the time out for it. Forget this world and remind yourself about you. 



Deepalya, with love
