Fear death …then fear life!

When I was younger I used to fear death, the fear was based on not being able to imagine what it would be like…now since suffering the grief, I almost think that I fear life now more than death ? When you lose someone, some part of you dies and therefore you face or almost feel what death looks like – the unimaginable becomes suddenly real. The irony is that life becomes almost difficult to imagine and because of that fear can take hold.
After saying that I have suffered from fear much of my life and if I have learned one it is to embrace fear. Fear means that you are living, fear creates the excitement in your life if you befriend it rather than hate it.
In 2009 I believe we should all resolve to face our fear, to use that fear to live again.
