While I do not normally consider myself a profound thinker in any essence of the phrase, I do believe that I sometimes stumble across profound thoughts- many of which I hope to share here on this blog.
Recently, I have been thinking on the topic of what people fear the most. I know personally, my greatest fears at this moment are school.... school... and more school. Whether or not I will pass my next Chemistry test, whether or not my Statistics teacher will actually teach the material that will be on our next test, whether or not I will be able to understand the writings of Shakespeare enough for my next quizzes, tests, and journals, and, finally, whether or not I will be able to sign up for the classes that I want and need for next semester. All of these fears add up to lots and lots of stress, but that's normally what happens with temporary fears. They pile up on top of one another until they are passed and then they fall like a wobbly Jenga Tower. For these temporary fears I like to remember when Mr. Kid Cudi said:
The sky might fall,
The Sky might fall,
But I'm not worried at all
-Kid Cudi
Wise words from someone you wouldn't normally consider so wise. So next time your tower of fears begin to stack into a tower of stress, just remember the tower will fall and I'm not worried at all.
More than these temporary fears though, I sometimes think of fears that are always with you. Like heights, spiders, milk, and other things of this nature. My personal greatest fear is of the unknown. Space, time, infinity are all very reoccurring examples of this fear for me. It almost makes me sick thinking of the enormity of all of these immeasurable things. These fears are constant and whenever they are triggered I get really tripped out. Even though are solutions for temporary fears like killing the spider, not drinking the milk, those such as imagining forever don't really have a solution- as far as i can tell.
PS. If anyone knows a solution to thinking of forever, space, time, or infinity please inform me. This information would be greatly appreciated. Haha
