Fear

     Every human being in this world have a weird feeling when they are afraid of something or when they perceive a threat. That feeling is what we called "Fear" and this feeling has helped human survive since the beginning of the time. Our ancestors survive until now because they are afraid that something is lurking in the dark or when something unknown is aproaching them, and then they ran away from it. Fear is not just a scary feeling, it is what helped us survive. Fear can lead us to run away, hide, sweating, or even passing out. Imagine if we were walking down the street and saw a man who holds a big bloody knife , we will immediately assume that man is a murderer. Because we perceive that the man we saw is too dangerous for us, our brain immediately tells us to run for the better condition.

     When we were younger, fear usually comes from scary things or even something abstract that we do not even know. For example, when i was 5 years old, i usually fear that something will come from under our bed to grab my feet. As we getting older, fear comes in different way and even funny things could make us afraid, such as fear of heights, fear of spiders, fear of women, or even fear of cats. It is impossible to get rid of fear from our life, because without fear, we would not know what courage is. Getting afraid of something is normal, you should just confront it and become stronger by overcoming your fear. In order to become someone who is courageous, we first have to overcome our fear.
