There’s a Cloud of Fear Inside me

A lot is going on inside my heart

If only my hand could express what is in my heart

— Seven Years in Tibet

There’s a reason most of my articles are about myself, sometimes criticizing, complaining, crying, a few times laughing, and a lot of time talking to the walls.

Writing gives me comfort, even if I write very rarely, even when no one reads it, it gives me pleasure that I have drafted down everything that’s going on in my heart and mind. It is like a friend who’s always listening.

So here’s another from my heart and mind.

A fear has taken over me, or a tension which sometimes rules my whole mind. I am getting afraid of losing things, like job, people, money, etc. Maybe this is why I am not even enjoying my job as well as I used to.

What if I lose my job, how do I then pay my bills? I might not, but the fear is running in my veins it seems. I always say to myself to take things on a day-to-day basis, but then forget it the other day and the same thing creeps into my mind again, until I find something new for solace.

I even think I am not justifying my work, I am not sure about it though, so I fear losing my job. It’s like a cycle running around me.

To be honest I don’t even know what I want to write about this feeling, it’s just there making me nervous and scared. There is another solace I found from the same movie quote and hope it does me something good.

If a problem can be solved there is no use worrying about it. If it can’t be solved, worrying will do no good

For now, I am going with this one.

I will wait for things to change inside me, and so I am waiting to write again in response to this one about the good things.

Until then Goodbye.

If you like my writing, you can support me by buying me a coffee.
