Episode 65 - Fear

Episode 65 - Fear

Jul 31, 2022

We all have fears. We all have insecurities. We all get scared. We all have fears of being alone for the rest of our life. There is this one great line by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (greatest singer of all time)

"Humne ghabrake tanhayion se Sba

ek Dushman ko khud Humsafar kar Diya"

it means

"I was so afraid to be alone for the rest of my life that I made my enemy my life partner"

The answer is very simple, the best way to avoid a problem is by solving it. the best way to overcome your fears is by facing them. the best way is always through. If you are walking through hell, it's better to keep walking. The more you try to ignore your fear the more powerful it becomes. In my opinion, it's better to live alone for the rest of your life than to choose a life partner just because you are afraid to be alone.

The reason why most people end up in unhappy marriages or relationships is because of their fear of being alone. They get into relationships not because they are in love but because they are afraid to live alone. Loneliness is the biggest poverty and the biggest fear of them all.

Learn the difference between solitude and loneliness. they might look the same from a distance but Solitude is heaven and loneliness is hell. As Gautama Buddha (founder of Buddhism) once said

"you, yourself deserve your love and affection like anyone else"

First, fall in love with yourself and always be aware of your ego and you will start witnessing that your loneliness is converting into Solitude. If you want a relationship or marriage make sure it's for love and love only. period.
