I fear....

I feared being alone Until I learned to like Myself .
I feared failure Until I realized that I only Fail when I don't try .
I feared success Until I realized That I had to try In order to be happy With myself.
I feared people's opinions Until I learned that People would have opinions About me anyway.
I feared rejection Until I learned to Have faith in myself.

I feared pain Until I learned that it's necessary For growth.
I feared the truth Until I saw the Ugliness in lies.
I feared life Until I experienced Its beauty .
I feared death Until I realized that it's Not an end, but a beginning .
I feared my destiny,Until I realized that I had the power to change My life.
I feared hate Until I saw that it Was nothing more than Ignorance.
I feared love Until it touched my heart, Making the darkness fade Into endless sunny days.
I feared ridicule Until I learned how To laugh at myself.
I feared growing old Until I realized that I gained wisdom every day.
I feared the future Until I realized that Life just kept getting Better.
I feared the past Until I realized that It could no longer hurt me .
I feared the dark Until I saw the beauty Of the starlight.
I feared the light Until I learned that the Truth would give me Strength.
I feared change,Until I saw that Even the most beautiful butterfly has to undergo a metamorphosis before it could fly .

(poet unknown)

Fear...silent on everyone's lips... but felt nonetheless.
Fear not for God is with you...
Feel no fear when you have faith in your God.
Realise that fear is a lesson to be learnt.
Have no fear, face the truth and live life to the fullest.
