Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week 115: The things I feared most!

Good day, everyone.
My special greetings goes to the host of this meaningful contest @steem4nigeria and my lovely ones.

When it comes to the things I fear most, these five stand out clearly:

1. Death
   This is my strongest fear. Death ends everything—life, dreams, plans, and movement. Nobody knows when it will come, and that uncertainty alone makes it frightening.

1. Losing my parents
   Even though death is my biggest fear, losing my parents hurts me more deeply. My parents are my source of real love, guidance, and care. I don’t even like imagining life without them, and that makes this fear very strong.

1. Failing in school
   Failure in school is painful because it feels like all your effort, money, time, and stress were wasted. Nobody wants to put in their best and still end up failing, and that’s why this fear stays in my mind.

1. Entering hellfire
   As a believer, I truly believe in life after death, both paradise and hell. The thought of ending up in the wrong place makes me careful and sometimes scared, because it’s something that lasts forever.

1. The last day
   The Day of Judgment is another fear I have. It is a day that will surely come, and the idea of the whole world ending and everyone being judged makes it something I naturally fear.

All these fears worry me because they are real. Some must surely happen, even if I don’t want them to.

For now, none of these fears have happened to me, and I thank God for that. I pray it stays that way, and when life brings anything my way, I pray it comes gently and peacefully.

About that saying, I don’t fully agree. Life doesn’t move in one predictable pattern. Some fears never come true at all. But on the other hand, I also understand why people say it, because certain things—like death—must surely happen. So I agree in one way, and I disagree in another. Life is unpredictable, but some things are certain.

Fear is something everybody has. These are mine, and they come from things that matter deeply to me. What’s important is how we live, how we prepare ourselves, and how we keep hoping for the best even when we don’t know what tomorrow will bring. If you can live with hope and faith, fear will not control your life.

I invite @bossj23, @okere-blessing and @dprof to participate in this contest.
