What Are You Afraid Of?

I was listening to gospel music today, and I started thinking about certain things; and one of them was fear. I asked myself what I'm afraid of, and my answer was weakness . I don't like to show weakness, nor vulnerability; and if you ever experience that part of me, then I really love, and trust you a lot. I generally don't like pity nor sympathy from anyone. If you ever going to do something for me, then let it be out of love, not out of sympathy, or pity.  Photo credit : Times Of India When I lost my parents, I barely told anyone; and even when I posted about it, I ended it with, "please don't tell me sorry". I lost the human that loved me the most - my mum; and I may never be able to get her love, and understanding from any human again. De@th is a part of life so I don't worry so much about that. However, I decided to share this - maybe it will encourage someone - there is nothing you lose that you can't get back except a loved one!

Hey guys, so when I shared  15 Things To Know When Dealing With An Overthinker , I realized that so many people deal with overthinking, and I promised to share effective ways you can try to stop being one. In as much as overthinkers are sweet souls, it's not healthy for you - especially for your mental health. It comes with unnecessary stress which is also not good for your well-being. Overthinking often involves two destructive thought patterns - ruminating (which I'm guilty of), and incessant worrying. Ruminating has to do with dwelling on the past, and you'll have thoughts like: * My parents didn't teach me how to cook, so I'm sorry, I'm never going to get it right * I shouldn't have worn this outfit yesterday. Bet everyone thought I looked $tupid * I should have stayed in my last relationship. I'd have been happier

I’m an overthinker. It sucks, right? Even though my beau has made me see reasons why I shouldn't always say that because it enables me to keep being one. Well one thing you need to know about over-thinkers, is that they didn’t just wake up and decide to be one, neither were they created like that.
