without fear
“Para hacer magia, hacen falta cojones”.
raised in fear; in the system of shadows
System of punishment
exposed - dragged
the system that controls and instigates the deepest forms of human behavior
Fear destabilizes,
paralyzes and makes you quiet
Makes you shrug into a ball of wrong thoughts,
of imaginary self-imposed consequences
that one day you will inevitably face
and even worse than that,
most of the times you think you deserve.
It is the way for redemption
- they say.
The way to a successful after-life,
as if any of them knew what they are talking about.
Living with fear,
living in the insides and within boundaries.
Living according to a made-up system
that someone smart enough created
in order to serve the purposes of those that aren’t afraid.
And we call that living.
Read that again.
“To serve the purposes of those that are not afraid.”
“Be careful “ seems to be everyone’s favorite new advice
And if you think about it –
careful of what? From what?
For whom? For me or for you?
What is this constant need of transferring fear into others?
Urging them to feel a bit or a bunch of whatever shitty shit we are feeling
The need to get rid of some of my fear by giving it to you,
completely unsolicited
as if it was going to protect us against our own darkness…
that’s endearing.
The need to say out-loud how fucking afraid we are
by putting it on others,
by pretending we care for others.
or on the other hand,
how unconsciously secretly jealous we are
to see that the person in front of us is daring to say
or do - something we have told ourselves repeatedly
we will never be capable of pursuing
- what rightfully is called Admiration.
So then,
is that fear?
The antithesis of admiration?
or the counter reaction to it?
Or the desperate need for it but the continuous negation of what we feel
or who we are.
As such, and in the contrary,
I will advise you to stop projecting fear,
to stop talking your fear into others’ plans.
to Stop punishing,
to stop warning
and to stop educating in constant threats.
And start living - if possible,
without fear
