Author's Note: This piece came across my mind in sort of a doubtful way. I see fear everywhere. At school, on the street, in businesses, etc. Fear gives me inspiration to go out in the world and do something about it. This piece is more about what I see and what happens all around us but we have somehow become immune to it although it is not a human characteristic that we would not like to be tagged with. Hope you enjoy.
Fear is a word that is used throughout the world. It has become something that we see every day but yet, do nothing about because it has simply taken a seat in the back but leaves a shadow over the world. It's not so much what we want but what some of us just have had to deal with for as long as we can remember. Some of us simply take it as a slight blow to the chest, but it sometimes comes in a powerful punch. Some fight against fear but get nothing back. Not a battle one. Not a dent in the core. Nothing has become as strong as hate has.
Fear has become something that no one can stay away from. Nothing can challenge it and nothing can go against it. It has become a part of everyday life as we know it. Some don't even think about it because we simply don't recognize it. We just see it and we don't think much of it. We see it as just a tiny scratch in a car. We don't realize what it could and might become to be. Nothing seems to be able to confront the enemy that has grown to become something that people see every day. Nobody recognizes the issue that has confronted our world with such power, but seems to be unnoticed.
What our world has become to be is a dystopia of fear. Fear is like a black hole. It takes you in and never lets go. We see it every day, we just are too stubborn to admit that it is there. We refuse to even look and see the marks that it has made on the earth as we know it. It is all around us but we don't notice it because it is a casual thing for us. We don't pay attention to the damage that it has done to our core. We don't realize what it does to the inner core of us as a whole. Instead of a world of love and hope, fear evolves us into a world of hate and unforgiving people. We don't realize what could happen if fear keeps eating away at forgiveness and love and infects them with a disease of hopelessness.
Fear is a harsh world that we never pay any attention to. We don't realize what the world will evolve into if we don't keep the love and hope that is still in this world. Without love and hope, we will be nothing and fear will eat away at love and hope and will completely turn our world into a turmoil. We need to keep the fear out of our lives and create a clear path for love and hope to get in and put a gate in front of the fear that is thriving in our hearts.
