(Un)Known

So many fears we have are just a fear of unknown.

Once you understand you are far more resilient than you ever thought you were, you stop fearing unknown.

But unfortunately that doesn’t mean you are never afraid anymore.

Sometimes, suddenly, a new fear arises. No longer fear of unknown, but fear that what you know now will forever be all you will know. No longer afraid of the change, but that this is it. That this is all.

And the fear of the known becomes more crippling than the fear of unknown ever was.
