Fear

We live with so many fears - known and unknown. The wickedest being the known- we know we need to fight them , we probably know how - but we won't.

And you thought life was easy? 

It is actually - it's just that we don't perceive it that way...ever .

The equations are simple, the derivatives are simple,the theory is simple - damn the answer is staring straight in your face , but we just don't like it simple - we love to make it hard or complex or a bit with a twist even and  meaningfully so! 

Sometimes, it's a lot like food - simple, rustic is usually the best version... but we like to mix it up a bit -a little flavor , a lil bit of salt and sugar and then top it up with some aesthetic angle to life's basic needs- I dunno what's with all the drama we like! And - after all the complexities we talk of that nagging stomach ache or the calories. What did you expect? Heaven? 

To think human being evolved with a sense to discern! 

There are times when you need to gain ground and loose the height- let go and land . Get back to basics , un learn maybe revise and re learn. We complex this basic understanding with " oh but it's too late" or " I'm too old to restart " or " oh what will so and so think and say?" .... our fears...they love to assume and be assumed of the fact that they have a death grip on us. I'm a good a case in point - my fears , engage me way beyond my comfort level- and that is putting it mildly. :/

I know I can't be caged by my fears- which is why the hurt from hell . And unless I do what I know I should do - I will live in this self created complex puzzle and lose the plot - and that is the reality.
