Fear

A four letter word that can either make you or mar you. This word has rendered many youths empty, this word has killed many. Due to fear, some future leaders of tomorrow has given up on their dreams. Fear is the battle I fought tirelessly.

Fear from my tender age has inflicted scars on me, It has deprived me many opportunities, at some point because of fear, I gave up. Fear my enemy, at some point I said, "Though I walk through the valley of fear, I'll run back".

Fear gave me inferiority complex as a gift and gave me a pat on the back to utilize it.
Fear told me that I can never make it,
Fear told me that I'm wasting my time.
When I try to free myself from his embrace, He tightly hold me as though his life depends on me.

Fear made me to fail various presentation,not because I don't know what to say,but because He gave me inferiority complex as a Bossom friend.
Fear made my friends call me "Oh Yes Member"
Fear gave me a lasting scar that show itself proudly.

Day and night, I pray to free myself from this Fear, but it seemed Heaven was against me. When I've lost all hope of breaking free, Courage with his siblings knocked on my door.
His siblings include; Confidence,Faith,Love and Trust.

Together they dragged me out from the embrace of fear and told me to believe in myself. They decided to live in me so that I can make exploit.
And on that Monday morning, I stood up and made my presentation not minding the thousands of crowd staring at me.

I hit my chest and said NO to Fear.
I embraced Courage, Confidence, Love,Trust,and Faith. I made them my Bossom friend and till today I never regretted it.
So to you out there, Courage and siblings will meet you and turn you to a new being.
This is my story.
