The story of Fear by Jikkermanccini
You know fear. Fear of missing out, fear of dissaproval, fear of being wrong. Fear manipulates all of us to hurt ourselves & those around us, and left alone can rot a heart to the core.
The root of fear is a mystery, yet it permeates our culture like acid. The fear of being wrong creates nasty division between races, political beliefs and families. Fear of missing out drives people from faith and honesty, because both seem less important than being accepted. Fear of dissaproval (CONTINUED!!!)

rips rends within families, pushing kids to hide how the feel until is poisons their hearts. It makes people fester inside with self pity and hate if they aren't liked or loved.
You want the answer to fear? Ears.
A listening, patient heart learns from those it loves, but also from those it hates. It finds peace in knowing, deep down, everyone fears, and in that fact it builds upon its' comrades and becomes a living fortress. An ear to hear what you dissagree with can make lasting

-ing friendships & form webs of respect that can withstand fear, for together nobody need be afraid.
Fear, in short, is a poison that eats at us all and keeps us from the truth of life. The strongest thing against fear is love & respect for those you fear, the objects of your terror. When walls are broken & the thoughts of humanity grow together, there is nothing stronger. Individual minds, with their own biases, thoughts & judgements, when brought together, are beautiful.

In summary, if you are afraid of something(such as being judged by parental figures), I implore you with all my heart to talk with them. If you are scared of being dissaproved of, scared that they won't (or don't) agree with you, then take some time to listen to their side respectfully and you'll see that your fear, no matter how ugly it looks, will dissapear. Who knows, you may just form a web of love that can stop fear in it's tracks, a web that will strengthen bonds & banish fear forever.

If you are ever afraid of what somebody might think, then ask them. Eve if they don't respond with respect, at least you will learn why they scare you. Who knows, they might have the same fear of you.
