On Fear

Living in this world, sometimes I wonder “Which one is more fearful, to live or to die?” If you were lying on a hospital bed, suffering from a fatal disease, your only fear would be death. You would pray either to continue your life on this planet with your loved ones and do good deeds as contribution, or you would wish to leave this hectic world quietly. But if you are alive, there is so much fear all around. Would I earn enough money to support my kids’ education? Have I saved enough for emergencies? Will my husband abandon me for a younger woman? Will I ever make my family proud? Will I work until I retired? It is widely known that present is the cause of the future. Although we try to keep in mind that if we do our best everyday, there is no need to worry about what is lying ahead; I am sure a lot of us still highly doubt.
