Fear…
🌿
Isn’t it so interesting, that we are only born with two innate fears: the fear of falling and the fear of loud sounds. 
🌿
All other fears are learned from our life experiences. With the number one fear being, the fear of public speaking.
🌿
It was quite a revelation when I first truly realised, that fear, only exists in the mind. Fear simply does not exist, in any which way, shape or form, somewhere outside of us, out there in the world.
🌿
That’s not dismiss how real fear can feel - in our mind, in our bodies and in our emotional responses to it. 
🌿
A healthy level of fear serves its purpose by keeping us safe from danger.
🌿
The problem arises when fear shows up as inaction or avoidance in our life. When we intentionally make choices out of fear that stop us living our best life. 
🌿
At it’s worst fear can have a completely debilitating effect on our lives. Fear can keep us stuck in our circumstances as we avoid new opportunities for growth and development.
🌿
George Addair is quoted as saying, “Everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of fear.”
🌿
The good news is, if fear can be learned, it can be unlearned too. 
🌿
The best technique that I have personally come across to help people overcome their fears is Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT Tapping).
🌿
It has not only helped me but has also helped my clients too, to completely process and release past experiences, beliefs, and responses that were perpetuating their fears.
🌿
If there is a fear that you would like to overcome, then give EFT a try. It may just surprise you! 
🌿
What actually prompted this post on fear today was this beautiful poem called ‘Fear’ by Khalil Gibran. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. 😊
🌿
Drop me a DM if you feel ready to work on your fears and would like to book an EFT session with me. 😊

     a SMILE dazzles tired lips as she eyes adam. she was  MESMERIZED by their quest to find GLENDOWER. she had TAGGED along, offering her help, & found that she too wanted to find him. blue wouldn’t have thought she mixed with AGLIONBY boys. they DROVE rich cars, had their whole lives to lull away with comfort. it wasn’t something she could do & yet adam was different from the aglionby boys. he had a SWEET face & she found herself attracted to him. the logical SIDE of her knew that she shouldn’t fall in love with anyone, she stayed away from them all her life. blue was gifted with the knowledge that she was going to kill her ONE TRUE LOVE. like the story of snow white, she’s awakened by her true love’s KISS, but instead blue was cursed with killing someone with just one press of her lips. even though she knew gansey was the one she’d lead to his UNTIMELY death, adam made her feel something she didn’t think she could experience. ‘ sorry, i’m a little late. my shift ran longer than i thought. ‘ for the moment, it was just them no search for glendower, or gansey to distract them. just blue & adam.

“If you’re being a gentleman, I may die of shock.”

they got boy whores! isn’t that thoughtful.

it was pouring and ronan was trying to be decent. “okay, look parrish, you either get in the fuckin’ car or you can stand there and get pneumonia or something, i don’t really give a shit.” he actually gave a lot of shits, but the expression on his face didn’t change from the ‘agitated doberman’ setting.  there was no way a bike was suitable transportation in this sort of weather. he thought about dreaming a hovering rain deflector or something to follow adam around while he insisted on riding that two wheeled single gear monstrosity. “you got five seconds to open that door.”

he throws himself on the closed hood of the sad looking blue pontiac beside the depressing puddy colored hyundai adam’s got his head stuck into, frown spreading. “c’mon, parrish. how long’re you gonna keep your head in the engine for?” back straightens, eyes close with self-importance, his tone takes that of an exaggerated school teacher who cares too much about your extracurriculars. “eye contact is very important when speaking to fellow humans, son.”

❝ Does that make me a sociopath? ❞

“Does what make you a sociopath?” He frowned. He wasn’t really sure if Adam was joking or not.

@learnedfear liked for a random college au starter.

( + i really hate you but you have the highest grades in class and i need help college au )

         Adrian didn’t hate him per say, but so far after seeing that guy on the same classes more than once, Adam Parrish was a reminder of what he isn’t and of what he awfully lacked - and that says heavily for a guy born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Unfortunately, he didn’t have the smarts to go with it, never really had the patience for school. He would have taken the advice to just drop the subject, but he didn’t want to do that again, knowing he couldn’t afford yet another failure. Sucking up his pride wasn’t something he’s good at, but he was fully aware that he was desperate for help, and it just so happened that this guy topped their class.

        Perching on the bench in front Adam while he’s having some lunch (which was looking pretty bland and lame for sustenance), he leaned forward, wary of the other people looking. “I need help, d’you have five minutes?”

{Starter for @learnedfear for Pynch Week Day 2 prompt: Prom Night}

He grumbled as he tied his tie in the mirror. Why did they think this was going to be a good idea? And why did he have this feeling he’d be getting arrested that night?

When Blue first talked about them all going to Prom together it was more of an abstract idea, and even then Ronan hadn’t been much of a fan of it. 

But the more she talked the more Gansey wanted the take her and the more they wanted to go the more she insisted that the give of them all go together and the next thing he knew they were all buying or renting suits and corsages and making dinner plans and he couldn’t back out.

So he was tying his tie in the mirror at Monmouth and waiting for his boyfriend to get ready.

At least it would be a night to remember.
