When Love and Fear Live Together
Why fear shows up when love is real
Love and fear are roommates. They live together. In my opinion, if there's love, then there will always be a fear of losing them. Every time I write a blog, I put my feelings in it. And today, I'm pouring my heart out. When you love somebody, it all starts with a feeling. A feeling you carry for that person. And with that feeling, you also carry a fear — the fear of losing them. You become so totally involved in that feeling that you start to think you won't be able to live without them. And that is totally not wrong.
Because you can't love a stranger, obviously. You love somebody who makes you feel secure, who makes you feel proud of yourself. Someone who makes even the simplest moments feel magical.
That's why the fear comes. We only fear losing what we truly love. And if you give surety to that person about loving them, there's nothing wrong in that. Because with love comes surety and reassurance. Saying "I love you" again and again, making them feel secure, telling them you are there—that's what keeps them close to you. That's what makes love stay.
