Dear Reader,
"Fear is that little darkroom where negatives are developed."
- Michael Pritchard
I saw this quote one afternoon written by a photographer and was stupefied at the perspective of the quote especially from a photographer's angle!! It also did set me thinking about "fear".
According to Psychology, fear is a powerful and primitive human emotion. It indicates the onset of danger, either real or perceived by us. There is also a universal physical response to fear - "fight or flight" in which the body prepares itself to either enter combat or run away. Having said that, the emotional response to fear is highly personalized.
One of my near and dear ones once told me, "Face your fear head-on. Don't run away. It only makes it worse." I believe in this thought and always attempt to incorporate it when faced with "not-so pleasant" situations.
Every time I succeed, I conquer one more fear within me.
