Bleakness.

Sometimes the future is so scary that you want to avoid it. Like, literally go out of your way to avoid it. Especially when the future is made of the results of the decisions someone else made for you. But what we fail to understand is that, beyond that short termed future that we are afraid of, there is a long termed future that possibly can make us.

Hello there, I'm the Earthian.

It is extremely scary, the uncertain future that literally has almost nothing that we are looking forward to. And to want to face that future is not something people do. But also, the funny thing about future is that we are always moving towards it, whether we like it or not. So there is literally no way to avoid it, no matter how much we enjoy hiding in our closets. Life is not fair that way. Or in any way, for that matter. Anyway, before I drift off of the course, it is completely one hundred percent okay to want to avoid the future. But actually trying to run away from it is the not okay part about it. Because we will for sure end up fooling ourselves.
It takes a lot of courage to face what we are afraid of the most. Most of our fears, we can avoid. Like if we are afraid of heights, we don't peep down from the top of a tall building. If  we are afraid of the darkness, we make sure we carry a torch or at least a cell phone with decent battery. But when what we are afraid of is completely unavoidable, like the future, we find the best ways to get past it. Or at least we try. That's what makes us stronger.

Lot's of love, peace.
