Thursday - Fear

HORROR/THRILLER

Fear is a normal feeling or response for living beings, especially humans.

Fear is your brain's way of keeping you safe, at least that's what you think.

For example, you are afraid of being alone, because you think that when you are alone, you are always being watched by someone or something so you always avoid situations where you could be alone.

You fear humiliation and isolation, being shunned by others, hated, scorned, rejected, so you always force yourself to be someone you're not.

There are also some people who are afraid of physical suffering, pain, disfigurement, injury and so on, where maybe while they are sliding down the pool slide, their arm is scratched by the edge of the slide and the splinter pierces deep into the flesh. It could also be that your fingertips are broken when you hold the ball.

There are also some people who are afraid of death, so they avoid as much as possible things that they think will endanger their lives, they are reluctant to cross the road, for fear of being hit and they have to feel a lot of pain before they die because their legs are crushed. They are afraid of approaching glass, especially those attached to buildings, because the glass might suddenly break and the splinters will stick all over your body.

There are still many fears that humans can feel, and it's all the brain's way of keeping them safe?

What are you most afraid of?

Death?

Pain?

Loneliness?

Psychological burden?

Or the ghost that is crawling rapidly towards you right now?
