Time to face the rain

My nervousness doesnt seem to subside afterall...yesterday was even worse as it dawned onto me that i literally had all my eggs in one basket...i didnt know how things will pan out and simply saying that it will be alright is not going to solve issues..Anyways, i was all worried and confused and after a very long time decided to go to crossroads by walk..I reachhed there and was wandering, trying desperately to answer within myself some behavioral interview questions and also by just walking, keeping myself on the move...And when i finally decided to head towards home, i realized that it was raining cats and dogs outside...in my overzealousness, i walked to the mall and realized that i was stuck...after being there for a while, i realized that my nerves were at it again and i decided i had enough...i saw the rain one last time (which was pretty heavy) and said to myself that...SO BE IT...if drenching is written in my fate, let me face it...what is the point in nervously walking across the mall and fearing the impending rain, which is going to happen anyways? I decided, let me just go out and get myself WET...I sent out a prayer to GOD and decided to come out of the mall from the other end...i was saying GOD's name within myself and then when i decided to come out, lo! i saw that the rain has subsided and the clouds have cleared off...At that moment, a little feeling of calmness crept over me..I felt thankful to the almighty for avoiding me getting completely drenched in rain and also realized that sometimes, you have to just do things instead of fearing for the consequences...I know, I know...it is hard to conquer the fear, but the way i see it, it is better to fight with the fear than avoid it completely..

As i learnt today, The fear of getting drenched in the rain was infinitesimally higher than actually getting drenched in the rain...

Amen!
