Hey anons.
I'm not really sure where I should talk about this, it's kind of a strange topic. I'm not sure how much of this some of you will be able to understand, but I think some of you might, which is the reason I'm asking here.
I'm trying to balance myself, and I think I need to face my fears before I can progress.
I'm not sure how to exactly do that, because my major fears are quite strange.
I'm afraid of horror movie type stuff. Basically being haunted, attacked, chased around by spirits, demons, what have you. It's "stupid" stuff like thinking a hand will wrap around the door frame and flick off the light on me. Having weird thoughts at night like "wouldn't it be scary if you opened your eyes and there was a "demon" right in front of your face? I don't really think of it as a demon, but more of a thing. It's hard to explain.
I'm not really afraid of anything else in life right now. I'm not rich but I've got enough money. I've got a pretty stable job. I've got a wife that loves me, pets that love me. I've got a pretty good family. I don't really fear something random like getting mugged or attacked by a person. I don't really fear death, even. I just know I'll miss my wife until we join again in the next adventure.
But yet this…. childish horror movie like fear still remains. I don't know how to face it.
I've heard lucid dreaming lets you face your fears, but thats in the dream. In the dream I'd be lucid and able to banish, kill or ignore whatever I wanted to because I am in my dream. I am aware life is but a persistent dream, but I am but a drop in the ocean. How am I to control reality? I have trouble coming to terms with the fact that since we are all one, I am also all as well. I fell like if I could come to that realization, or get closer to it that might be of some help for me.
I dont know, I feel like I'm rambling on at this point and I think theres enough here for someone to go on.
Please feel free to ask me anything about my beliefs if that would help you help me.
Thank you for taking the time to read.
God Bless you and have a good day.
