F E A R


It is only four characters word, but carries a lot of power, silent passive destructive power which prevents the mind from the freedom of thinking and restricts the body from the freedom of movement to seek success and joy in life.

Fear is the most powerful obstacle which destroys the ability of many people to function properly in life.  There are many types of fear resulted from different causes and have different effects, some are resulted from accumulated causes throughout the years, others are caused by us and the behavior of the society, both of them prevent the person from reaching the full potential and success.

Accumulated Fear

This is the most danger type of fear because it is in most cases rooted deep within the unconscious mind which prevents us from knowing what is the cause.
This type can be fear to get out of the house, meeting or talking to people, shopping, driving, looking for a job, interviews, fear to express an opinion, staying alone in the house, sleeping in the dark, fearing to take a shower, fearing the height, and many others

Fear caused by us & society

Almost everyday we hear on the news about the killing in the streets of our cities, burglaries, home invasions, car accidents, fighting and many other problems, all of these events cause a lot of fear between many people, in addition some of us don’t have the inner-self strength to accept the fact that these bad events should be considered as a part of our society and should not be a reason for fear, just take the proper precaution to protect ourselves.

The effect of fear on the human life

All of us have some kind of fear which can range from a simple everyday fear up to an unusual very extreme.
The simple fear is beneficial in helping us to take the proper steps for self protection and to think carefully before taking specific action to avoid the undesirable outcome.
While a simple fear can be good for us, the extreme one can destroy the person life. Living with an extreme fear means suffering each minute in life, can’t go outside the house, can’t make shopping, can’t converse or work with people, can’t drive, can’t earn income, completely worry all the time, afraid that something will happen, this constant worry and fear will cause a high blood pressure, confused thinking, bad decisions, health problems, depression and a completely miserable unhappy life.


Overcoming the fear

In my own opinion, in order for a person to reduce or overcome the fear, the followings can be followed:

1-      Convince yourself that your life is limited, and you want to live it in joy and happiness.
2-      Energize your mind to analyze your childhood years to find the causes of the fear within your unconscious mind.
3-      Empower your mind to eliminate the causes of fear or dismantle their effect.
4-      Build up your self confidence and believing in yourself
5-      Concentrate on yourself and disregard whatever is bothering you
6-      Feel happy for your own accomplishments and build self trust in yourself
7-      Believe strongly that you should do your part in life and accept whatever result without worry or fear.
8-      Keep up energizing your mind to be in control of your life, to prevent new fear and to keep the old inactive.
9-      Keep busy by doing constructive projects and positive thinking
10-  For serious situations, professional help may be needed

The fear is and will always be part of the human life, but we should use the beneficial fear as a tool to make us careful in all what we do and dismantle the bad effect of the extreme one to enable us to accomplish our goals and feel the joy of life.

Love, Happiness & Joy

When most of us hear the word love they get an immediate impression that the word meant the love between a man and a woman. Although, this first impression is normal, but it ignores for a moment the fact that it is possible that it meant another kind of love.
As we all know, there are many kinds of love in addition to the love between the opposite sexes, such as love between a parent and a child, sisters and brothers, relatives, friends, neighbors, loving your own self, love for animals and birds, love for nature, love for power and wealth, and many others.
When we are in true love, whatever this love is, we feel joy which clears our visions and energizes our minds to find the route for success in life.

This article will emphasize briefly on the widely known love between a man and a women based on my own thoughts and experience in life.

Types of love between a man and a woman

The word love is often used very loosely by many people without a real understanding what does love mean. Love between a man and a women can be categorized in two main groups, first is the faked love, and the second is the true love.

A-    Faked Love

This so called love can be exercised by one person faking love to the other person, or by both persons faking each other with a main purpose of seeking specific objectives such as financial wealth, publicity, promotion, sexual needs, and others, it is a short lived so called love and in many cases ends with many problems.    


1-     Love for sexual needs 

This a very wide sort of unguided faked-for-a minute love, not based on the wisdom of the mind, but on the desire to satisfy a sexual need by using each other as an object for a temporary satisfaction without looking forward to the damages which their action may cause later such as, getting health problems, pregnancy and many other related problems.  

.
2-     Love for publicity

A man or a woman faking love to a famous person to use him/her as a temporary ladder to seek publicity, then when the objective is accomplished the faked love will be ended. 


3-    Love for money and wealth

   This type of love can be faked all the way by a person, even getting into marriage and having babies only because the other person is rich and have a lot of wealth. Most of this type of faked love happens between a young female and an old male who is looking for a young woman to love.

Also, there are those who gets money as they go, they act as a shadow lady, called also as a mistress for a married man, or as a shadow lover for a married woman, both the man and the woman are faking their love which is not more than a sexual act for a return.
.

B-  True love for a whole life commitment

The true love is the one between a husband and a wife which fill the minds and hearts with joy and understanding and satisfies the sexual, financial, respect, social, trust, freedom, security and safety needs of both without expecting anything in return except love, respect and mutual understanding.

Someone may argue that love can be between a male and a female without having to get married, yes, many people do, but their definition for love is to do whatever you want without commitment, my definition for the true love is to prove to yourself and to the other person that you really love each other and ready to be committed and responsible for each other by getting married.   

For marriage to stay for life, it must be based on the true love which satisfies the above mentioned combination of needs.

The effect of the True Love on the person’s life

The true love will free your mind from the obstacles of life which will enable you to see the whole world clearer and to know the real priorities in life. Your mind will be energized to think wisely to keep your candle of true love ignited to light your way to success and happiness.

It is your life, your soul, mind and body, the person who really value his/her self will do the best to be purified from all bad acts in life and to seek only the true value, true love, true objective and the True Joy of Life.

The True Joy of Life

All of us experience a good feeling when we accomplish something no matter how small it is, this feeling is the joy within us which makes us feel satisfied, relaxed and happy.
In the same time, there are some of us who can’t see or enjoy many other things in life beside the accomplishment of various projects because they get very distracted by their busy life style and don’t have the time or opportunity to set alone and think clearly about life, soul and mind and how to find joy in everything around us, they are missing a lot of joy and with it are missing a lot of free sources of good health, peace of mind and happiness.
        
A- The definition of joy

My own definition of joy is a feeling spreading within my body, heart, soul and mind making my body gets relaxed, my heart functions in a healthy manner, my mind becomes active, my vision about life becomes clearer and my soul gets happy and peaceful.

Some people may think that there are only one type of joy in life, but I believe that there are two types, the true natural long-term type and the false short-term.      

1-  True long-term joy

It is the joy which comes from your real action to accomplish something, and from your own open-mind and clear vision to see and find the beauty of life within the nature and to enjoy it, this type will benefit you for as long as you live and will make your life longer, happy and healthy.

     2- False short-sighted joy

It is the false feeling of joy caused by external effect such as drugs, alcohol and other substances to escape from personal problems. This false joy will be very short-term and will cause an opposite effect, the mind will make unwise decisions, the health will be bad, and worse of that, it may affect other people due to unwise actions taken while under the influence.  

B- Sources of the true joy

The person with a clear vision and a wise mind will discover the true joy in everything she/he hears, sees, touches, feels, tastes or smells. It is within us, in our families, friends, whole society, and a lot of it in nature.

    1- Internal sources within ourselves

Let’s just look at ourselves, our own body, how it looks, how it functions, our hands, fingers, nails, eyes, face, ears, just look and think how wonderful we are, how we speak, think about the heart pumping the blood through the body to distribute oxygen and nutrition, think about the kidney, the lung and all the rest of the body, each part of our body screams at us to look, touch, feel, think, analyze, understand and enjoy what you have, be happy and full of joy, even if you have some medical issues, you still with a wise mind be able to find joy. Your joy may help you to get over your medical issues or at least will make it easier for you to understand that this is a part of life.  

     2- Family

The spouse, children, father, mother, brothers, sisters, just look at them, hear their voices, touch their hands, they are like an ocean of joy waiting for you to take and fill out your heart with love and joy, forget about how much they cost you, they give you back more, they give joy which makes you able to think and to succeed in life.   

     3- Friends and society

Look at your friends, neighbors, people in the street, while shopping, or at work, find the joyful points about them, even if they look angry at you, take it in the positive way, think about their angry expression, how artistic it is, your objective is to extract the joy from everything you see or do.
     
     4- The nature

      Nature is full with a lot of sources for joy, sunrise, sunset, the sun, the cloud, the rain, even the storm, rivers, oceans, birds, plants, flowers, for sure the air and water, actually everything in nature is a source of joy, sometimes hard things happen, but to reduce our suffering in the time of trouble and to keep us able to think clearly we should have the power to find the joy even during the most difficult situation, this joy may directly or indirectly save us from getting in more bad condition.
    

C- The effect of the true joy on the person’s life
   
The person with an ability to find the joy in everything around her/him will benefit greatly in many ways such as physically, financially, socially.

    1- Physical effect

Joy will produce relaxation which in turn will lower the blood pressure which will reduce the danger of heart problems. It will enable the mind to think clearly and to understand the importance of keeping a healthy body by eating healthy food.    
 
    2- Financial effect

The clarity of the mind to think will let many people make wise decisions in finding a good ways to earn living and to have a good system in handling their financial affairs to provide for the family in the present and the future which in turn will add financial security and peace of mind..

  3- Social effect

Joy produces happiness which will be reflected on the person during the dealing with   the family members and other people, the joyful looks on the person’s face will make it easier for people to talk to her/him which will make life more enjoyable and successful.  

 As we see, you have the ability to get the key for success in life by just energizing the power of your mind to think clearly and to have the vision to find the true joy in everything around you.
