It Happens

So for todays post I'm going to do another lyric post, except this time you only get the chorus. Why because it is oh so true!

"Now it is poor me, why me, oh me
Boring the same old worn out blah blah story
There is no good explanation for it at all"
"Ain't no rhyme or reason
No complicated meaning
Ain't no need to over think it
Let go laughing
Life don't go quite like you planned it
We try so hard to understand
Irrefutable, indisputable
The fact is
Psssh
It happens"
~Sugarland's "It Happens"


I've also decided to include quotes of the post, which I think will be a nice addition and will hopefully get those brain juices thinking.

"Life is our teacher. Life communicates with us all the time and it is a lesson to see how life continuously have led me to the people I need to met, to the situations I need to experience, and to the places I need to be. There has never been any real reason to worry since all small individual rivers are already on their way to the ocean, to the Whole. It is not about swimming, it is about relaxing and to float with the river in a basic trust that life already leads towards the sea of consciousness, towards the Whole."

-phobia

  1. Acrophobia- Fear of heights
  2. Aquaphobia- Fear of deep water
  3. Arachnophobia- Fear of spiders
  4. Automatonophobia- Fear of ventriloquist's dummies, animatronic creatures, wax statues - anything that falsely represents a sentient being
  5. Aviophobia or Aviatophobia- Fear of flying.
  6. Claustrophobia- Fear of confined spaces
  7. Clithrophobia or Cleithrophobia- Fear of being enclosed
  8. Coulrophobia- Fear of clowns
  9. Demophobia- Fear of crowds
  10. Glossophobia- Fear of speaking in public
  11. Taphephobia Taphophobia- Fear of being buried alive

This is a list of all my fears. Some are worse than others. All of these things I’m trying, and will hopefully, learn to to no longer fear. Well I can finally cross one fear off my list. Which is it you may ask (and even if you don’t I’m telling you anyway :P): Necrophobia- Fear of death.

Now you may wonder why, out of all my fears, this is the one that I have overcome since this seems to be the “biggest”. Well I decided that it is ridiculous to fear the inevitable.

What does this have to do with you? Well really I just wanted people to see that once they know themselves they can then grow and improve themselves so that they can live their lives without fear.

If you want to find out the names of your fears here’s a great site I found, it doesn’t have all fears but it has a lot: http://www.phobialist.com/ 

Not that anyone reads this but if they do I’m curious to hear your thoughts on phobia’s, what yours are or how you conquered them.
