Feared

Ketakutan, kebimbangan dan yang kita hadapi sehari-hari adalah satu bentuk rangsangan tanpa kita sedari. Tanpa ketakutan, kita tak akan lari kalau singa lapar ada di depan kita. Tanpa kebimbangan, kita mungkin sahaja membawa kereta tanpa membelok di lereng bukit yang berliku. Hayati ini untuk mendapatkan semangat sebenar dalam diri kita.
I feared being alone
Until I learned to like
Myself.
I feared failure
Until I realized that I only
Fail when I don't try.
I feared success
Until I realized
That I had to try
In order to be happy
With myself.
I feared people's opinions
Until I learned that
People would have opinions
About me anyway.
I feared rejection
Until I learned to
Have faith in myself.
I feared pain
Until I learned that
it's necessary
For growth.
I feared the truth
Until I saw the
Ugliness in lies.
I feared life
Until I experienced
Its beauty .
I feared death
Until I realized that it's
Not an end, but a beginning.
I feared my destiny,
Until I realized that
I had the power to change
My life.
I feared hate
Until I saw that it
Was nothing more than
Ignorance.
I feared love
Until it touched my heart,
Making the darkness fade
Into endless sunny days.
I feared ridicule
Until I learned how
To laugh at myself.
I feared growing old
Until I realized that
I gained wisdom every day.
I feared the future
Until I realized that
Life just kept getting
Better.
I feared the past
Until I realized that
It could no longer hurt me.
I feared the dark
Until I saw the beauty
Of the starlight.
I feared the light
Until I learned that the
Truth would give me
Strength.
I feared change ,
Until I saw that
Even the most beautiful butterfly
Had to undergo a metamorphosis
Before it could fly.
Semoga kita sama-sama berani menghadapi cabaran mendatang…
