Me: I hate you Fear!
Fear: Why?
Me: Because you are blocking me from doing what I would like to do which is to go walking alone by myself. No member of my family has the flexible time to accompany me on my walking schedule. I need to go walking because it is good for my health and I consider health wealth. But I am afraid to walk alone because of you!
Fear: Huh? Because of me? What have I done?
Me: Everyday I hear about muggings, pickpockets, violence, robberies accidents and all sorts of negative happenings in the streets of Metro Manila. Now because of you – FEAR – I am afraid to walk alone.
Fear: Are you sure something bad or harmful will happen if you go walking alone?
Me: I am not sure but it could happen.
Fear: Oh so you are blaming me for something harmful that you are not even sure will happen! Yet you say that walking is important for you because you consider it wealth. If its that important to you then why are you allowing me to stop you from doing it? Maybe you are just too lazy and you are using me as a convenient excuse!
Me: Why how dare you! Of course not!
Fear: Then choose – Your health or me – FEAR. Which will it be?
Me: Its not that easy because you can be so overpowering. I wish you would go away and never bother me anymore.
Fear: Oh sorry about that! You cannot get rid of me. Even our Big Boss has allowed my existence so there’s not much you can do about that. I suggest we become friends instead. I am not all that bad you know. Without me your life will probably be in a deeper mess. I provide you with the warning signals so you do not go overboard and become harmful to others. So why dont you go take your walk alone. I am not in your way – its your own limiting belief thats blocking your decision. Dont blame me!
Me: Okay fine. I will! Goodbye!
Fear: “Till we meet again” is more appropriate! Hahahahaha. . . .
