We all have fears, every one alive. The difference with those with PTSD is we live in fear. Everyday we battle the fears our minds hold on to. They form our lives, the change us, destroy the person we could have been.
But they do not destroy us. They do not kill us. They provide us with a choice.
A simple choice: Live in fear, or live with fear.
It is a choice that is so simple we often miss the difference between the two.
One is to be consumed by fear, where it controls our lives. It alters our very minds, and distorts our view of the world around us. We fear the very world we inhabit, the air we breathe, the water we drink. We fear the particles in the water drink to the point where we lose all sense of logic. Parts per trillions of radioactive particles, becomes our water has nuclear waste in our drinking water. We fear the outside world has dangers around every corner. The sun brings with it a darkness we can not shake.
But living with fear, is to acknowledge our fears, to grow with them. To use them, to our betterment. The fears become our guiding force, our motivation. They become a template for us to plan our lives, and our new goals against. When we walk with our fears we see our weaknesses and we work on them to better ourselves. We strive to grow and gain strength where we once had weakness.
Make it a point in life to walk with, and live with your fears. Do not live in fear, do not let the fear control you. You are not defined by your event, you event is over, now it is time to define your event. Now is the time to claim your life, and claim your fears.
