Thinking of fear is ok
Being afraid is quite another!

Now locate the picture of her standing next to Lyndon Johnson as he is being sworn in as president aboard Airforce One, Jackie Kennedy is in shock; it is a normal response to a traumatic event that can last for an unspecified amount of months. Shock is an automatic coping mechanism to delay pain & fear. This fear during grief helps a person to survive their loss when many experience the desire to die.

I fear losing my husband. I don't want to be a widow. So I can relate to your post Really!

Speaking of Jackie there is a new movie coming out about her. It takes place after her husband's assassination. Supposed to be a good movie. I'm looking forward to it.

I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. And no, you can't replace someone so dear to the heart. At least I couldn't. He's a one of a kind. I wish you warmest greetings.

Fear will control most people. Most people are blind to it as well. They are simply subservient to its insidious tyranny.

The you live your whole life as a shadow of your former self. That is tragic and a waste of a life.

An easy emotion to be dragged into, but upon full spiritual understanding, the emotion will be pretty much non-existent. And I see no useful purpose of possessing such an emotion. I know why it exists, because we simply think that being like, or possessing what others have will make us also happy, but people should understand happiness can be maintained by other means too

Something happened that made me very fearful.
I had a day full of reading articles on smartphone.
I was asking myself why was so focused on staying almost all day on it.
And before falling asleep had halucinations of a woman staring at me. Or feeling constantly watched by someone.
Maybe it seems delusional or schizophrenia symptom. But I guess karma is letting me know how smartphone felt when I was using it
