100 Day Challenge: Day 10
10 Days Down 90 more to go 
Wow, I am really tired tonight. I thought I was mostly over whatever this is (has the symptoms of the flu, but they're pretty much all gone except that I'm really tired.)
It seems like Fear was a big topic for the day. Thought about it before I went to be last night/this morning as it was a major theme in my negative emotions list.
Then nothing else really happened until I was in one of my classes and my teacher started talking about fear. How it's a learned behavior, babies don't experience fear. They have a toy and you take it away, yeah they'll cry, but they don't fear loosing the toy while they have it.
Without conflict there can be no development.
One of the first people I saw that started going through one of these 100 Day challenges said in one of his video logs that we must understand that whatever we have can be taken away. However if it is taken away we can rebuild what was lost.
If you did it once, why can't you do it again? The thing is it'll probably be easier the second time.
Life flows in cycles of creation and destruction. New ideas replacing old ones, new clothes going into your closet as old ones come out. I myself have to clean out my computer component collection every once in a while. What I find interesting is that most of the time when I get rid of things more stuff shows up to take it's place.
One of my roommates was watching a YouTube video or reading a book and there was a comment about how really rich people don't have a lot of stuff. After hearing that I stopped and thought about it, I used to install hardwood floors. There were a number of wealthy homes that I worked in. Looking at the homes through that perspective, yeah they didn't have a lot of stuff. Or at least clutter. There were lots of wide open spaces in their homes.
Thinking about it, I have an experiment that I'm going to try. Well more continue from my post about the clean sweep. I wonder if all the clutter in my life is preventing/hindering new energy from entering into my life. Clothes I don't wear, electronics, I don't use, boxes full of random stuff. All of it taking up space in my life and preventing new energy from coming in.
Let's see what new things show up in life when I make room for them
So back to the beginning of the post, what does this all have to do with fear, more specifically, fear of loss? Maybe we shouldn't be afraid of what might be "lost" and enjoy what we have while we have it. When it eventually disappears, we can see what replaces it and decide what to do then.
Everyone have a good night!
