I was reminiscing on the fact that when I was younger, I feared nothing. I think most kids fear nothing. Do you feel that you fear more things as you grow older? Were you one of those monkeys who used to go crazy playing in the 'sungai' and playing in the dirt/mud, but is too afraid to go out now because you're afraid of the sun-wrinkles and all....? When we were younger, we didn't really care when we first meet someone, if that someone is gonna accept you, those days, it was simple, if the person was fun to play with, you're friends with him/her immediately. Now however, some people are even scared to go out of their houses let alone venture out and meet new friends- because of fear of psychopaths, serial killers, boredom..etc. As we get older, we let fear interfere in our judgement, life choices, life partners, career choices... So here's a little reminder, don't let fear control you.

tears for fears is very good sound
I see it this way:
When we are young, it's basically "ignorance is bliss"... we don't really think about worrying.
Then as we get older a bit, we start being aware of many things that can hurt/harm us/loved ones, and we start to worry... this is the stage when things are pretty messy.
Further down the line, as our understanding and wisdom increases, we should really see that many of our fears are groundless, and also that some fears are pointless to worry about. Hopefully :)
I guess as we grow older we get more insecure? Hey, when I was a kid, I used to climb trees and not scared to fall down you know.. now, lol, of course I say I scared lerr...
