As human, we have fear of something. Most of the people are afraid of heights. But, if you had 9 lives, what something you would do that you wouldn’t do now?

Maybe you wanted to do paragliding? Or walk on the highest bridge on earth? Jump off a skyscraper? Play with electricity, or want to feel if you get hit by a train? That’s scary, but hey, you have 9 lives!

I think fear is something that sometimes can hold us back to do the things/new things in life. I don’t know if it’s a good or bad thing. But all I know, sometimes it’s good that we can feel fear. Because it gives us signal for caution.

But for me, if I had 9 lives, I would use one of them to fall in love again.

For some people, loving is the bravest thing they have ever done. And it was for me. Loving someone, loving life, loving good things. Have you ever missed those feelings? Because I have.

When you were in a good relationship, but you had to end it because only you and them and God who knows, you feel like you can’t afford love again. Because you already give them all of you. If your love is a gasoline tank, then now it’s an empty tank. It makes you afraid to fall in love again because you don’t want to feel something that has been so good, and one time it disappear into thin air. So, you decide you don’t want to fall in love again.

For me, a messy break up is another thing, but a good break up — a break up with no screaming, no hating, or even you ended up as friends, is one thing.
